In a bid to promote quality education among the underprivileged, Lucknow-based, Aaghaz Foundation, has launched a unique scholarship program in the holy month of Ramadan.
Titled ’30 Days, 30 Scholarships’, the initiative kicked off on March 11th, and aims to support 300 deserving students across the country with a total fund allocation of ₹60 lakhs.
About Aaghaz Foundation
Tariq, a spokesperson for the Aaghaz Foundation, shed light on the initiative, emphasizing, “In addition to the ’30 Days, 30 Scholarships’ program, our foundation remains dedicated to sponsoring the education of students year-round, especially those forced to drop out due to financial hardships.”
He also noted, “Recently, we extended our support to fund the higher education of a student pursuing an MBBS degree in Pune.”
Aaghaz oversees over 50 memorial scholarships aimed at aiding underprivileged students across various educational levels, spanning from primary to secondary, middle school, and higher education.
Here’s how to register for the Ramadan Scholarship
Since its inception in 2004, Aaghaz has contributed to covering the school and college fees of over 60,000 students across India. Without this intervention, many of these students would have been at risk of dropping out.
If any underprivileged student or someone aware of such individuals requires assistance in pursuing their education, they can apply for the Ramadan Scholarship scheme by emailing their case details to aaghaz.foundation@gmail.com.
