Summary

Project provides scholarships to meritorious & needy students who graduated from the virmani schools and have got admission into professional colleges.

What is the issue, problem, or challenge?

Children from low income group families cannot afford to pay the fees charged by medical, engineering and other technical colleges, the scholarship will enable them to study in the professional colleges in india and improve their standard of living.

How will this project solve this problem?

We provide them counseling in school to encourage them to join professional colleges, and scholarships for their graduate studies. Their progress in college is monitored on a quarterly basis.

Potential Long Term Impact

Students from low income Indian families often aim for clerical government jobs; with assistance of the scholarship, 75% instead apply for professional courses, which will help them increase their standard of living and the nation's progress.

Project Message

A good education is the greatest gift one. These scholarship enable low-income youngsters to reach their potential, boost their life prospects and advance the prosperity of their families and society.
