Giving

The KGMS community today benefits from the vision, courage, dedications, and commitment of our supporters. Tuition and government grants fund our day-to-day operations but, as an Independent School and a not-for-profit organization (with charity status), we count on the continued generosity of our families and friends to pursue our mission and change lives.
