Female Scholars Foundation Scholarship

Female Scholars Foundation is a non-profit organization set up to provide sponsorship for university education, guidance, and mentorship to poor young women in the rural areas, in order to adequately equip them to integrate into the modern society and obtain reputable professional jobs across the globe. We achieve our mission through partnerships with individuals, private institutions, government organizations and development organizations.

This life-changing initiative is aimed at supporting brilliant and deserving young girls from public secondary schools across Nigeria, particularly those in rural communities, by providing full access to higher education 100% free of charge.
