Parents and youths in Uasin Gishu County have appealed for Charlene Ruto's help in raising funds to help victims of the Finland and Canada scholarship scandal get back to school.   Addressing the press on Sunday, May 11, the frustrated parents and youths invited the president's daughter to a fundraising event that has been slated for June 4, 2025.

The groups are seeking to raise Ksh57 million for the victims of the scandal.   The parents have said that the long wait to get justice has prompted them to shift to other means as they wait for further court directives.

The parents have urged other leaders and founders across the country to step in and support the parents to take their children back to school.   "We now have a date and we have invited visitors, some of whom have already pledged to attend and support us to help the youths.

We also want to invite leaders and other founders who have foundations to help the youth, especially Cherlene Ruto, who we would like to be present during the event," one parent stated.
