WHAT YOUR SUPPORT MAKES POSSIBLE

A scholarship covers more than tuition.

Continuing education often also means covering everyday costs and having someone to discuss questions and next steps with.

01

Education and materials

Support with tuition, materials and other educational expenses, according to each student’s needs.

02

Housing and meals

Help with living costs when studying means moving away from home.

03

Follow-up and choices

Meetings with the local team to discuss exams, difficulties and the studies each young woman wants to pursue.

Since 2018

EduFem began as a pilot supporting the education of two young women. Over the years, the project has supported different educational paths.

Alongside them, throughout the journey.

Follow-up meetings offer a space to listen to the young women and plan with them. The 2026 reports document exam preparation, the completion of educational stages and decisions about higher education.

Support adapts to each student’s path. The decisions about their futures are their own.

With more support, we can reach more young women.

With more sponsors or more people contributing to EduFem’s Teaming group, we could support more girls in Grades 11 and 12 to continue their education.

You can join Teaming for €1 a month or contact us to find out about sponsoring a student.
