To date, DAHEI has awarded 13 educational scholarships to students entering High School in Dominica. Thank you to our donors and supporters who have made this initiative possible. Our goal is to award 4-6 scholarships every year, value of $10,000EC for the cost of 5 years of their high school education. This is an important investment in our youth, for these are the children who will be the future of the island.
Every child deserves the opportunity to obtain a quality education and the resources needed to foster success.
In 2023 we hosted our 1st annual scholarship ceremony in Dominica celebrating the new incoming scholars.
Our current scholarship recipients share the impacts the scholarship has made in the life and community.
In October 2020, Dominican Health and Education Initiative (DAHEI) awarded two scholarships to Dominican students transitioning from elementary to high school. These are 5-year scholarships that provides funding to cover books, uniforms and school supplies for the duration of their high school career. The DAHEI Team is also tutoring the students in areas where they are weak to ensure their success through High School.
DAHEI has donated 50 computers and other school supplies valued at over $60,000 to the elementary schools of Dominica. Schools that benefited from the supplies included Wotten Waven Primary, Soufriere Primary, Grandbay Primary, Kaleb John Laurent Primary in St Joseph, Coulibistrie Primary and Bright Beginning Centre Preschool in Roseau.
