Give Your Child a Future To Behold Through an Education Policy

Learning is inseparable from the fact of being human, and throughout the tumultuous history of mankind, it is the singular most consistent thing that has been present in our lives.

We learn in times of plenty, and hunger comes with its lessons too. In times of peace, even more in times of conflict. Prosperity delivers knowledge and pontification, just as adversity teaches us warfare and survival.

As Jiddu Krishnamurti puts it, “There is no end to education. It is not that you read a book, pass an examination, and finish with education. The whole of life, from the moment you are born to the moment you die, is a process of learning.”

It is a fact of life that parents spend their most productive years and money in the education of their children.

It is also the fact that Education is the greatest driver to all societal progress as well, and it is what pre-occupies all of us for the greatest part of our lives regardless of our origins, affiliations and even capacity.

Finally, from infancy to the job market is an average of 25 years, all of which is spent learning.

Knowing this, and being products of education ourselves, Kenyan Alliance has crafted a most responsive product to give parents an edge in creating a financial nest for the future education of their children.

Birthed in simplicity, it is simply, aptly named “Education provider.”

Education is an inheritance that all parents ought to have the capacity to bequeath their children.

Unfortunately, poverty, debilitating disease, death, and the vagaries of life do sometimes get in the way and destroy all progress a well-meaning parent may have made. It needn’t be this way. All our education would be meaningless if we cannot assure parents that it is possible for their children to carry on with their study plan uninterrupted by misfortune.
