The engagement reaffirmed our shared commitment to empowering students, promoting quality education and creating platforms where young people can actively contribute to national development.

The engagement for Chagaiya Secondary School was inspiring and full of hope.

Beyond discussing leadership, career choices, drug and substance abuse, online safety and teenage pregnancy prevention, the students made a personal commitment to improve their study habits and become more intentional about their academic goals.

Perhaps the greatest compliment we received was their request for UGSA to return for another mentorship session. That invitation is a reminder that these conversations matter and we look forward to walking this journey with them again.

Our session for Bishop Muge Secondary School was nothing short of transformational.

The mentorship programme became a game changer as students openly engaged, challenged themselves to dream bigger and embraced conversations on leadership, personal development, career planning, digital opportunities and making responsible life choices.

Real change begins with a single conversation and we are confident that the seeds planted today will grow into leaders who will positively transform their communities tomorrow.

The journey continues.

Our mentorship journey at St. Anselm Matharu Secondary School was filled with curiosity, meaningful conversations and eye-opening discussions.

One of the highlights was helping students appreciate that success is not limited to the careers they commonly hear about. We explored diverse professional paths including careers such as mortuary science (morticians) and emphasized that every legal, ethical profession plays a vital role in society. The students asked thoughtful questions and demonstrated a genuine desire to discover their purpose.

A fruitful conversation indeed. The future is bright when young people are exposed to possibilities beyond the ordinary.

The Uasin Gishu County Students Association (UGSA) conducted a successful mentorship programme for St. Anselm Matharu Secondary School, Chagaiya Secondary School and Bishop Muge Secondary School in Tarakwa Ward.

Our sessions focused on career guidance and skills development, leadership and personal growth, prevention of teenage and early pregnancy, the fight against drug and substance abuse, online safety and digital opportunities. These conversations are critical in shaping informed, resilient and purpose-driven young people.

We extend our sincere appreciation to Hon. Yego, MCA for Tarakwa Ward, and CO Ambrose Tarus for their invaluable support in bridging the logistical gap and ensuring the programme was a success.

To every UGSA member who participated, thank you for your dedication and service. To those who were unable to join us, we look forward to having you in our future mentorship engagements as we continue to expand our impact across schools in Uasin Gishu County and beyond.

We also took time to stand with one of our own, Ezrah Yegon, a student at Karatina University, following the passing of his father, the late Retired DCIO Zacharia Kipkogei Yegon. We visited the family in Ngong', Burnt Forest, to convey our heartfelt condolences on behalf of the UGSA fraternity. May his soul continue to rest in eternal peace.

At UGSA, we believe that leadership is service and mentorship is one of the greatest investments we can make in the future of our communities.

Together, we empower students, inspire leadership and transform communities.

In line with the call by H.E. President William Ruto at the beginning of 2026 for intensified national action against drug and substance abuse, the Uasin Gishu County Students Association (UGSA) will be rolling out an Anti-Drug and Substance Abuse Campaign at Koshin Technical Training Institute in Moiben Constituency later this April.

Drug and substance abuse continues to pose a growing threat to the health, safety and future of young people in our institutions. This campaign seeks to create awareness, foster prevention and empower students with the knowledge and support systems necessary to make informed and responsible life choices.

UGSA therefore invites development partners, government agencies, civil society organizations, private sector actors and individuals to collaborate with us in delivering a high-impact, youth-centered intervention. Partners will have the opportunity to contribute through technical support, facilitation, resource provision, mentorship and visibility during the campaign.

To express interest or explore partnership opportunities, kindly reach us via:
