University or college students have a chance to show their writing might in this by-annual essay competition by Satima trust. If you are a proud Kenyan then the essay should be easy pie for you as the title should be “proud to be Kenyan”. The essay should be ready by November 2. The trust has announced the launch of the 2009 edition. The competition may just be the little chance you need to set yourself up in good time for occupational opportunities, depending on how well you prove yourself.
The sponsor, Satima Trust, was set up in 2005 to honour Dr Imre Loefler, known for his spoken and written words. Dr Loefler, who died in 2007 aged 78, was a surgeon and also a professional partner of Amref. He frequently flew out to remote areas to help with medical emergency assignments. But he was also a prolific writer and essayist, which made him famous due to being frequently published in many publications. He was also appointed board member of organizations.
In 2005, a number of his friends formed Satima Trust to support students who displayed similar passion for writing. They launched Satima Essay Contest to expose the most gifted. The competition has been running since 2006. Should you be a finalist in this year’s event you will be expected to deliver your essay before a panel of judges on November 25-enough exposure career wise is/should be expected. While preparing consider reading Loefler’s book “Pills, Planes, and Politics: The wisdom of Imre Loefler”
