Problem

A Syrian Orthodox Priest, Fr K.O Thomas was a great philanthropist and used to help the needy at any point of time let it be weddings, education or medical expenses irrespective of their religion or faith. The goal of this scholarship is to enhance the educational development of 10 students (5 boys and 5 girls) by covering their educational expenses for an entire calendar year.

Solution

Students will receive Rs. 1000-Rs.1,500 every month for 12 months. During this period, students who receive scholarship will need to maintain excellence in academics and other activities such as participating in sports, arts and community development.

Current Status

The scholarship project is running well. Parents are extremely happy for the monthly amount they receive. Apart from studies, scholarship award winners continue to show aptitude and excellence in music and art competitions. This scholarship will be expanded next year to support the same kids and add 10 more pending donations.
