Scholarship
Foundation
Registered in England & Wales

“Vidia vicari ta par upkari”
“Contemplate and reflect upon knowledge and you will become a benefactor to others”
- Sri Guru Granth Sahib
“Sikhs are the only major world community with no viable education fund. If we do not build one now, it will not exist in the future. The death of a culture, history and religion follow easily once the education framework of the community is destroyed. Sikh education is in a crisis, there is little behind the front and even that is crumbling.”
