Kennedys is pleased to announce that our Bermuda office has selected Knowledge Quest as its Charity of the Year, marked by a $10,000 donation in support of the organization’s ongoing work to expand access to education across Bermuda.
Founded in 2002, Knowledge Quest has provided scholarships and offered mentoring support to more than 300 Bermudians, awarding over $7 million to date. As a “scholarship of last resort,” the organization supports students who have exhausted all other funding options, combining financial need with demonstrated academic capability.
Knowledge Quest’s impact is far-reaching. Many of its recipients are the first in their families to attend college, balancing academic ambition with financial and personal responsibilities. By supporting both traditional university pathways and vocational or flexible learning opportunities, the organization helps break cycles of limited access to education and creates long-term benefits for individuals, families and the wider Bermudian community.
Selecting a charity like Knowledge Quest was a natural choice for our team. Their model ensures that support reaches those who need it most, students who have demonstrated both resilience and potential but lack the financial means to continue their education. By investing in access to education, we are not only supporting individuals, but also contributing to the long-term strength and sustainability of Bermuda’s workforce and community.
Knowledge Quest’s impact is both immediate and enduring. The organization is helping to open doors that might otherwise remain closed, particularly for those who are the first in their families to pursue higher education. We are proud to support an initiative that delivers measurable, lasting outcomes and creates a ripple effect that benefits families, industries and Bermuda as a whole.
Through this partnership, Kennedys is proud to contribute to an organization that is creating meaningful, lasting change and investing in Bermuda’s future workforce. We look forward to supporting Knowledge Quest throughout the year and strengthening our connection with the communities in which we live and work.
