The Vodafone India Foundation offers Nurture Merit Cum Means Scholarships to support meritorious students belonging to the underprivileged section of the society for pursuing their undergraduate studies.
Every year, thousands of deserving students are unable to complete their education and drop out of the formal education system due to lack of financial resources. There are several scholarships available but many remain underutilised due to lack of awareness and application support. Additionally, information about most scholarship programmes is available only in English, which leaves out a large ambit of students who may not be proficient in the language.
