Young African Man Wins Scholarship to Top US Universities, set to further studies at Harvard
Ebenezer Tseh, a young African boy, earned $2 million in scholarships to attend six prestigious universities in the United States, ultimately deciding to attend Harvard University to study computer science. Ebenezer, a Ghanaian, shared his story in a post by Ckdon on Twitter, stating that the journey to earning the offers came with various challenges and breakthroughs. Ebenezer was born into a modest family, with his mother trading fish and his father working as a laborer.
Despite their financial struggles, they enrolled Ebenezer in a prestigious school, making numerous sacrifices to cover his tuition.
Ebenezer struggled to concentrate at first, but his will to end the cycle of poverty motivated him to work harder in school and eventually place in the top 1% of his class.
Ebenezer became enthusiastic about using technology for good after discovering his love for computer programming at a summer program. He developed the LEARNING HUB educational app with his friend Japheth.
Despite financial difficulties, their collaboration flourished as they co-founded EXEATLOG, a web-based tool for digitizing the school leave system. Ebenezer claimed that his enthusiasm for technology-driven solutions was stoked by their project’s recognition at multiple technological contests.
