Samaanta Foundation is an initiative that aims to promote equality and empowerment by providing quality higher education to students from poor socio-economic backgrounds. The Foundation provides comprehensive fellowships to meritorious needy students to cover their educational and associated costs, and helps create an enabling environment for the fellows and their education.

Samaanta Foundation addresses some of the problems in higher education by providing comprehensive fellows that made these opportunities both affordable and accessible to deserving students from rural communities. We began the fellowship in 2012 and are slowly expanding to build a national endowment for higher education. We have now recruited our third batch of fellows in 2014, and we are quickly moving towards building a strong, reliable model. We believe that, with the right support and encouragement, our fellows can be the changemakers our communities and our nation needs.
