It has been said that "The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now.” While we have many success stories of alums and their achievments to share with you, we are in this joint mission to craft the new success stories to build a prosperous society.
Beacuse of your help in this project and the fund raised so far, we were able to award more scholarships for the new freshmen students at RIT Kosovo (A.U.K). Paired with other initiatives, last month we awarded 57 scholarships to talented students in financial need.
A public “Scholarship Awards Ceremony” event was held at RIT Kosovo (A.U.K) campus garden where all scholarship recipents participated with their families. Scholarships were awarded by President and Dean of Faculty at RIT Kosovo (A.U.K), Dr. Kamal Shahrabi. In his speach, Dr. Shahrabi thanked all donors that have contributed to this project and the support given by the American University in Kosovo Foundation.
Since our inception, AUKF has been proud to support RIT Kosovo (A.U.K) a private non-profit American academic institution. Donations from foundations and donors like you enable generations of future leaders in Kosovo, the region and further abroad to receive a quality American education and to become active and integrated members in our societies. Despite the diffcult economic situation in Kosovo, our resolve to continue the RIT Kosovo (A.U.K)’s mission of providing a top-quality education to the people of Kosovo is even stronger.
Thank you for your trust in this mission.
