Our Respected Donors,
We are so grateful for your generosity and ongoing support for girls' education in Turkey! With the help of your kindness, our girls are going to school and are thriving as independent and confident individuals of the future.
Your sensitivity to the girls' education, they have started taking steady steps towards their aspirations and dreaming bigger!
Kardelen is one of the high school student, who is the recipient of this scholarship. She says "I want to show that a girl can have goals and dreams beyond the limited definition and perception of womanhood in the society. If we were given a chance, we can be successful. The only thing we need is to have equal rights and chances. As a matter of fact, I know that if I were happened born into another family, I could have been a mother of three or four myself, but I am lucky that I have been given a chance to study. And, I will become a female doctor."
Esma,14 years old and a 9th-grade scholarship student has also great ambitions. She is successful in school and her favorite class is science. She says she has met her idol at the Teknofest, where she was watching an acrobatic flight shows. Now, she aims to become an acrobatic pilot herself. She says "to be an acrobatic pilot, I first have to be a pilot and to be a pilot I should be fluent in English. Thus, I will study English in the 11th and 12th grades. The fact that I already made a choice about my goal, I am super focused on my goal."
With this project, let's help these girls get the education they need to grow into their potential and give back to their community. Your support provides these young women a future they have been dreaming of. Thanks a million for making their dreams come true!
