Spark of an Idea
Our journey began in a summer workshop, where we identified a major problem in India's education system: the lack of a common national platform. Everything is school-centric, and opportunities beyond academics and sports are disconnected.This sparked the idea for Indian Scholars: a foundation completely built by students, for students, and entirely free of cost. Our core philosophy is the empowerment of students with unique talents in areas like gaming, dance, or digital skills, who currently lack recognition. We aim to give these students a voice and a platform, bridging a crucial gap in the system.
Welcoming Our First Scholars
Indian Scholars launched its first cohort, bringing together some of the most promising students from across the country. This marked the start of a national initiative focused on identifying, supporting, and celebrating young talent. We're not just another education program - we're a growing network of students, mentors, and changemakers working to shape India's future. Through mentorship, national exposure, and exclusive opportunities, we help scholars build skills, confidence, and connections that matter.Indian Scholars is 100% free, fully funded, and open to students from all backgrounds. If you're driven, curious, and ready to grow - this is your platform.
Expanding new horizons
June 2025 marks a pivotal moment for Indian Scholars. We're taking a significant step towards opening up our organization to fundraising, scholarship bodies, and establishing our official website. This move is crucial for enabling a much larger intake of scholars and extending our reach to more schools across India. It's a bold stride towards making our vision of a truly comprehensive and empowering platform a widespread reality.
