The Ganjo Scholarship was founded in 2007 to commemorate the memory of Ganjo Njokweni who died tragically in a skateboarding accident in 2007 shortly after joining Elkanah House High School. The Scholarship was initiated to provide an annual scholarship for a black, coloured or asian student who may not otherwise have the chance to do so. Over the past five years, Elkanah House has awarded five Ganjo Scholarships to deserving individuals.
Elkanah House believes that the student community is enriched by a diverse student body.
