COVID Crisis Support Scholarship program is an initiative of Buddy4Study India Foundation to support children who are left vulnerable and with very little or no financial support for their further education owing to a COVID-led crisis (family or financial) in their family.
Since early 2020, COVID has devastated many families in India. With 2.38 lakh deaths (till 8th May 2021) due to COVID-19, India is going through the biggest disaster of the century where lakhs of families are devastated and facing a crisis for the lifetime. Further, increasing job losses and unemployment has made it difficult for many families to support education of their children.
