Applications for high school scholarships now open
Last year, 30 individuals were selected to join the Scholarship programme, bringing the community of scholars to more than 150 in pursuit of the Foundation’s mandate of developing responsible entrepreneurship for the common good.
The Foundation understands that a solid education is the starting point to any entrepreneurial journey and therefore chooses to collaborate with schools that have a track record of excellence. The Scholarship covers full high school tuition and boarding fees. In addition, scholars will receive allowances to subsidise travel, stationery, prescribed books, toiletries, school uniforms, civilian clothing, pocket money and extra-mural activities. They also participate in the Foundation's development and leadership programmes, which aims to enhance an entrepreneurial mindset.
