Asha Scholarships project aims to fund the school fees and cost of uniform and books for children from 1st standard to college (LKG and UKG in exceptional cases). The children should be from under-privileged background and be nominated by a nominee who should be an Asha volunteer or someone trusted by Asha. The nominee would play an active role in mentoring the children.
While many projects focus on helping schools that educate under-privileged children, there is also a need to help under-privileged children who attend other schools spread all over the city (Chennai). In addition to providing financial assistance to these children we believe the Asha volunteers can provide alternate role models and provide valuable mentoring to these children.
The project aims to
<ul>
<li> Reach a wide and diverse cross-section of children spread over the metropolitan area of Chennai.</li>
<li> Provide active mentoring and funding to empower the children to become fully functional adults.</li>
