The Mother Teresa Scholarship Program
Education is fundamental to Human Growth and Development
India, one of the largest democracies in the World has a Population of over 1.3 billion of which 27.9% of the people are living below the poverty line.

The poverty situation in India is a serious problem which requires much attention in the developmental programmes of the country. In the fight to end poverty, education is the most powerful tool available. The literacy rate in India is only at 74.04% which needs to be radically increased to combat poverty.
The Mother Teresa Foundation aims to provide access to equality in education by providing scholarships to the underprivileged; especially to Girl students and first Graduates, through The Mother Teresa Scholarship Program.
The scholarship covers School fees, School supplies, College, Hostel, Transport and Incidental fees and expenses.
To achieve this goal, The Mother Teresa Foundation partners with Government departments, Educational Institutions and like-minded organisations.
