NGO Mondo set up the "Brilliant Fund" to support talented but needy students and advance the quality of education in Mondo partner countries. Individual Estonian donors support over 300 students in Northern Ghana and Western Kenya. 70 students were studying in secondary or vocational schools in 2017.
