Will You Support a Girl's Dream?
Do you believe in empowering girls to break barriers and achieve their dreams?
Join us in our "Empower Her Future: Bridging the STEM Gap" campaign and help support girls from underprivileged rural communities in pursuing STEM education. By encouraging these girls to continue their studies in fields where they are poorly represented, we are not just transforming their futures—we’re also paving the way for a more inclusive and equal society.
Why STEM Matters:
STEM is more than just engineering and science—it opens doors to diverse opportunities in technology, healthcare, finance, and more. These fields are essential for shaping the future, yet girls from rural communities face significant barriers to entering them.
Current Challenges:
- Underrepresentation: Women make up only 21% of STEM graduates in India.
- Economic Barriers: Talented girls often lack the resources to pursue STEM studies.
- Missed Opportunities: STEM careers offer high-paying jobs, but these girls are often excluded from these paths.
By supporting this campaign, you’re not only helping these girls access transformative opportunities but also inspiring a new generation of women who will shape industries, innovate solutions, and lead the way forward. Together, we can bridge the gap and create lasting change.
Why Your Help is Important:
Through VFF USA's STEM Education Scholarship Program, students receive 100% financial support toward their education and currently, 51.6% of scholarships are distributed to girls.
This program aims to provide a financial boost to the young people from impoverished communities in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, with a focus on women to help them graduate and find employment in a technical field.
