Dear friends,
This is the kind of story that reminds us why we do what we do.
One of our graduates—now working in an architecture firm—recently helped a current scholarship student secure an internship at her workplace. It was a simple act, yet it carried profound meaning.
For years, Buldan Foundation has worked to provide not just scholarships, but also access to internships, job opportunities, mentorship, and a strong support network. And now, our students are beginning to become that network for one another.
What once required our direct involvement is now growing into a self-sustaining chain of solidarity. A student who once needed help now offers it. A dream realized becomes a new door opened for someone else.
This is the impact of long-term, holistic support. And you’ve made it possible.
A quick note:
GlobalGiving’s July Bonus Day is happening soon—between July 16, 10 a.m. EDT and July 17, 10 a.m. EDT.
If you’re considering a gift, this 24-hour period is a great time.
All online donations of $100 or more will be matched, with no cap or limit.
There’s nothing extra you need to do—just give during that window if you’d like your support to go further.
Thank you for believing in education.
And thank you for helping young women not only rise—but lift others with them.
With heartfelt thanks,
