NEED and MERIT BASED SCHOLARSHIPS

We support post-elementary education in Turkey through need and merit based scholarships. For the school year 2023/2024 our scholarship program reached 1,658 students with a budget of $290,105. Each year the TEF Board reviews student records in order to ensure steady intellectual growth and sustainable social impact.

Access to Education

We believe that education is indispensable for achieving equality for all. We support low-income students from all religious and ethnic backgrounds. As students are able to focus on their studies, they can pursue diverse professional careers and break away from the cycle of poverty affecting their families.

EMPOWER GIRLS AND WOMEN

We believe that education is the most effective tool to eliminate gender inequality. We prioritize scholarships to girls and women so that they can make informed choices about their lives and also contribute to a more egalitarian future for everyone.
