Clement’s father works as a security guard. His mother is a homemaker. When she needed surgery during his final year of college, Clement was ready to give up on his degree.
But his principal and class teacher didn’t give up on him. They reached out to Prof. Meenakshi Srinivasan, who heads our Merit Scholarship Program, explained the situation, and together they made sure Clement could finish what he started.
He did. And today, Clement is the first graduate in his entire family and a Senior Operations Executive at Flipkart.
This is what a scholarship actually does. It doesn’t just pay a fee. It holds someone steady at the moment they’re about to fall. It tells them their dream is worth fighting for. It changes the story of an entire family, not just one person.
Clement said it best: “Without the support of my college and Meenakshi Ma’am, I couldn’t have graduated, which was my biggest dream. I am proud to be the first graduate in my entire family, which has made my parents proud.”
We have supported over 6,000 scholars like Clement across India. Each one of them had a moment where the odds were against them. Each one of them made it through because someone chose to show up.
If you want to be that someone for the next Clement, the link is in our bio.
