About:
Children who have had to suffer the violence of poverty and prejudice from the day they were born to develop inner strength; their demand for life and their need to survive, gives birth to a spirit of innovation second to none.
Vahani scholarship is a not-for-profit organisation working to further the education and prospects of children from underprivileged backgrounds in India. Its mission is to send Indian students who come from extenuating and unfortunate circumstances to the top universities across India.
