  • Career Development Scholarship

    States

    Maharashtra

    Since 1959, the Sakal India Foundation has worked to empower students by providing career mentoring, education loans, and scholarships. This company was founded to provide grants and scholarships to deserving students from low-income families so they may pursue higher education.

    To continue the tradition of supporting worthy students from less fortunate families, SIF established the Career Development Scholarship more than thirty years ago. Thousands of students with exceptional distinction have received Career Development Scholarships from SIF up to this point.
