Secondary School / high School Scholarships

Secondary School / high School Scholarships
We have started to give secondary school/high school scholarships when Siirt, Pervari District Officer asked ÇYDD in 1997 to support the girls who wanted to go to high school. The scholarship project  thus started with the scholarships  we have given to 17 girls from Pervari  and  snowballed into a great project with the support of corporate and individual donors. Various scholarship projects such as “Snowdrops” and “Daddy Send me to School” were started for corporate donors and the scholarship project supported by individual donors was named “I have a Daughter in Anatolia she will be a Teacher”

Since 1997, a total of 104,915 primary and high school students have been given scholarships with the support of our individual and corporate donors.
