As one of the largest non-governmental scholarship providers, NYF grants life-changing scholarships to over 700 students each year, with a special emphasis on serving the most marginalized – including female, disabled, and low-caste children and teens.
In addition to school fees, NYF can fund the children’s living costs, medical expenses, clothing, and counseling services as needed. These scholarships ensure specialized education for children with disabilities, from grade school all the way through university in some cases!
One of these students, "Asha" is physically disabled (enormous difficulity walking). Her impoverished family could not afford medical care and educating her was simply not an option. Thankfully, a villager referred her family to NYF, forever changing her life. Asha is currently studying in the 6th grade with an NYF scholarship, doing well in her studies, receiving excellent medical care, and enjoying her childhood with friends.
Support from friends like you makes these remarkable transformations possible. Thank you!
