Scholarships
250 students supported so far, so that money rather than ability stops deciding who finishes.
Education is one of the few reliable routes out of poverty, and it is also one of the easiest things for a struggling household to give up. The Scholarship Program supports students from financially disadvantaged families so that a shortfall at home does not end a degree that is already underway.
Approximately 250 students have been supported to date. Assistance covers the costs that otherwise force a student out: tuition, materials, and the everyday expenses of staying enrolled.
The point is continuity. A student who can stay focused on studying, rather than on whether next term is affordable, is a student who finishes and goes on to earn.
What the program does
- Students from low-income families
- Covers tuition and the costs of staying enrolled
- Aimed at continuity, not one-off relief
- Opens the path to higher education and employment

Can I sponsor a student for a full year?
Yes. Choose this project when you give and say so in your email, and we will tell you what a full year costs for a specific case.
Figures are cumulative totals since the program began, not a single year, and are rounded.
Give to Scholarships specifically, or let us put it wherever the need is greatest.
