Deadline: 30-Sep-22
The Girls Unstoppable is pleased to announce the applications for the 2023 Empowerment Through Education Scholarship program.
GU works to transform the lives of marginalized adolescent girls by providing them with scholarships that support them to attain education, skills, and knowledge.
Each year GU supports marginalized adolescent girls as they pursue their Secondary Education. The financial support is primarily to cover the cost of education itself in school fees (fully or partially) with or without other directly related expenses like books.
Scholarships are generally granted for the full period of secondary education; however, recipients must maintain good grades, participate in community service and meet GU deadlines for submitting an official copy of the termly report, and validation of community service hours. Therefore, the scholarship can be discontinued at any time in the event of unsatisfactory performance and/or dishonesty.
Eligibility Criteria
The ideal candidate –an adolescent girl in secondary school who:
- Successfully completed a primary education, with good to excellent grades
- Joining or is currently in secondary school.
- Has a history of community service.
- Will not be able to continue or begin secondary education without financial assistance.
