EDF would like to thank all our donors for the continuous support in our scholarship program. Especially in the last few months, without your prompt support as many as 2,712 children would run the risk of not being able to continue their education.
Our one year of fundraising for the academic year 2010 (July 1' 2009 to June 30'2010)
led to the creation of smiles of 5,924 students in total that receive scholarships despite their financial deprivation.
The funds were allocated as 2,343 new scholarships and 2,951 continuous scholarships for secondary and vocational school students. Furthermore, support of 495,419.87 baht was given to the orphans that lost their parents from the violence in the 3 southernmost provinces of Thailand (the number of scholarships to be granted will be finalized after the students receive the scholarships).
EDF will transfer the scholarship funds to all the students this July and donors will receive the student information and photos in August-September 2010.
From July 1' 2010 onwards, EDF will start accepting scholarship donation for the students for 2011. EDF is currently in the process of accepting applications for scholarship from students and also random survey of students' eligibility for the scholarships in more than 3,000 rural schools.
EDF still strives to find enough continuous support from everyone and is ready to be the communication mediator between you and your sponsored child. Please do not hesitate to contact us, if you have any questions regarding our scholarship program at 02-579-9209-11 or email to public@edfthai.org
