Christian theological training and education of local leaders in Kenya and throughout Africa.
Scholarships for undergraduate, PHD, and Masters students from numerous African countries.Many Africa International University (AIU) students benefited from CLA scholarship donations during this past academic year. Many received full scholarships of $3,000. These scholarships are applied to tuition and in some cases housing costs for the students. The CLA Executive Director monitored the progress of each of these students, meeting most of them in person during his campus visit in February, and consulted with the Financial Aid Director at AIU about their financial needs. CLA also supports the doctoral students at AIU.
Supplement faculty support for full-time African professorsOne of CLA's priorities is to support the African faculty at AIU so that their salaries and living expenses are adequately covered. Funds raised by CLA are applied to their compensation. CLA also manages endowment funds for some of these faculty members according to their departments (Biblical Studies, Islamic Studies) that are raised and invested in the U.S.
A housing shortage for students is preventing some students from attending AIU. A Hostel project has been initiated to determine if it is feasable to build affordable housing on site at the campus.
