Our History
he KCA University Foundation was established in 2013 as a trust with key focus on scholarships for students at the time. The focus was on students who had qualified to take up degree courses at KCA University but was not able to progress with their studies for lack of tuition fees. Besides scholarships, the foundation was also charged to undertake fund sourcing to finance research activities and infrastructural development of the University. The foundation was registered as a trust and all funds collected towards this purpose were directed towards a University bank account in the name of the foundation. In December 2021 KCA University established the KCAU Foundation to be the special purpose vehicle, registered as a company limited by guarantee to assist in its resource mobilization and advancement initiatives with strategic focus on Scholarships, Endowment, Capital Projects, Research & Innovation.
