The beneficiaries were selected by the school administrators based on merit and financial needs. This support will significantly ease the financial burden on the affected students and their families, while enabling them to successfully complete their studies
His Excellency remains resolute in his determination to expand educational opportunities, particularly for students from disadvantaged backgrounds, as part of broader strategies aimed at fostering sustainable growth, social inclusion, and youth empowerment across the State.
