Vidya Chetana is a Scholarship Programme initiated by Youth for Seva in 2009. This programme was conceived with the objective to support the education of students hailing from underprivileged socio-economic backgrounds. The programme aims at providing scholarships to students pursuing PUC (10+2), Degree, Engineering, and Medical studies. Our beneficiaries include poor students, handicapped students, and students who lost their parents during the COVID-19 pandemic. Currently, we are supporting 2500 students across 10 states & till date, we have supported 5,775 students. Education is one of the most potential and sustainable ways to put an end to illiteracy and poverty. Education not only empowers the student but also makes a positive shift for the whole family. Through Vidya Chetana, we want to empower students with education, so that they can achieve their aspirations and grow up to be self-dependent and resourceful citizens.
