    The Ghodrati Foundation Provides Full Scholarships to Three Batswana Athletes

    12 November, 2021

    New Era College was recently proud to host a scholarship handover from the Ghodrai Foundation who continue to give opportunities to young Batswana to further their education. The Ghodrati Foundation is a non profit organisation that aims to contribute meaningfully to the socio-economic conditions of Batswana.

    The Foundation has since 2018 sponsored over 80 students to attend New Era College and this year has decided to give preference to the future sports stars of this country so that they have a qualification they can rely on once their sporting days are over.
    The recipients of the scholarship are two young women who play for Mexican girls football club and a young male 400m runner who received the College is proud to have them join their BOTESSA athletics team. The total of value of scholarship for the three students is P845, 208.00.
    Giving his remarks at the handover, Marketing and Communications Director, Mr Anderson Nlisana said, “This initiative was meant to reduce the burden of tertiary education financing from the government of Botswana, whom we are grateful to for providing tertiary education financing to Batswana students.”
    The College is proud to open its doors to the next generation of shining talent this country is to produce in the sports field as well as on the Engineering front.
