We are proud to celebrate Jemimah, a Pistis Foundation (PF) scholar who finished the 2024/2025 academic year as both Overall Best Student and Best Behaved in her class — a rare and inspiring double that shows academic excellence grounded in character. Her achievement shines a light on what targeted support and opportunity can do for bright students from economically challenged backgrounds.
Jemimah joined the Pistis Foundation Scholarship Program in 2024 after being shortlisted from our 2023 scholarship assessment. Since then she has consistently excelled academically, demonstrating curiosity, leadership, and a kindness that lifts her classmates. Her story — from assessment day to classroom leader — is a powerful example of how the PF Scholarship Program helps turn potential into achievement.
These awards are more than trophies; they are proof that when opportunity meets commitment, lives change. The Overall Best Student award recognizes Jemimah’s dedication and academic performance, while Best Behaved celebrates the humility and respect she brings to every classroom. Together, these honours reflect the Pistis Foundation’s mission to nurture whole people — minds and hearts — rather than focusing on grades alone.
The PF Scholarship Program provides more than fee support. It provides educational support from primary through tertiary education, mentorship and academic guidance to help scholars thrive. Jemimah’s success demonstrates how scholarships unlock potential and enable students from economically challenged backgrounds to become future leaders, teachers, and changemakers in their communities.
