In 2023-24 Gunjan Foundation will be providing scholarships to around 250+ students (school & advanced education). Our first batch passed out in 2022 from 12th grade and has got admission to different colleges. We are proud to announce that one student has been admitted to the prestigious Ramjas College, Delhi University. Another student is now studying at Deen Dayal Singh College, an equally prestigious institute. We are indeed proud of the achievements of both these students.
In the year 2021, Gunjan opened a new chapter in Jaipur with the sole intent of disbursing scholarships for college education. In the Jaipur chapter, we are sponsoring 30 girls for higher education in different fields like Engineering (IIT), MBBS, B.Pharma, BCA, computer classes, English-spoken classes, etc.
Gunjan has also started a chapter in Ahmedabad in the year 2022 to support needy children in their pursuit of school and college education. Work has already started with full passion and commitment. Grocery kits have been distributed to the needy. They are also sponsoring the education of school and advanced education.
Gunjan is now looking at expanding its horizons and opening more such chapters in other cities too.
The world is changing, and India is at the center of the world’s growth ambitions – we are rapidly digitizing, creating unicorns in bulk, aiming at high-tech manufacturing, and trying to reform our rural sector. Education and social upliftment will be instrumental in this national vision and this is Gunjan’s small contribution to creating an educated, informed, and capable citizen.
