Many of UoPeople's students come from disadvantaged populations such as refugees, immigrants (including undocumented), single mothers, and students whose financial situations leave them unable to afford even community college. A number of its students come from Africa, including survivors of the Rwandan genocide and other regional conflicts, individuals from rural villages, orphans, and women. All of these deserving individuals would lack the ability to receive higher education and an improved future without UoPeople.
Due to the fact that we have not raised any funding for this project, we have, regrettably been unable to provide scholarships to students in need using this platform. We greatly look forward to the success of this campaign and providing access to higher education for 45 students. Please help us to spread the word in order to actualize the success of this campaign.
Although UoPeople has been unable to award scholarships through this project, it has continued to provide access to higher education for students around the world and has continued to attract grassroots support. It has also been positively mentioned in numerous media publications.
