Bridge: Empowering Girls' Education in Egypt

The Bridge Qualifying Scholarship Program, managed by Etijah, is making a significant impact on education for girls in Egypt. Thanks to the generous donations from our trusting supporters, the program focuses on empowering high school students from marginalized communities across several rural governorates. So far, the program has supported 175 students, equipping them with the skills needed to succeed in their academic journey.

Etijah is proud to share that the program extends beyond helping students gain university admission. It continues to support them throughout their university years, ensuring they have the assistance needed to overcome challenges and achieve their goals.

Through the program, students will develop critical transferable skills, improve their language proficiency, and strengthen their academic knowledge. These skills prepare them to compete for top educational and employment opportunities.

Looking ahead, Etijah remains steadfast in its mission to empower future leaders. Etijah is focused on broadening students' access to several academic fields, providing them with diverse opportunities to thrive.
