Grameen Bank Scholarship Programme
for Member's Children |

In order to facilitate better educational opportunities for the children of Grameen members, Grameen Bank launched a scholarship program for talented students, in 1999.
To encourage schooling of Grameen children, Grameen Bank introduced scholarship programme, so that, children from the poor families stay in school, and compete in both academic and extracurricular activities. Priority is given to girls. In Bangladesh education for girls is generally considered not as important as for boys. Even today, the general attitude of the society is such that women are supposed to take back seats and confine themselves in the role of a housewife after marriage. At least 50% of the scholarship money must go to girls and the remaining 50% will be given to both boys & girls based on overall performance. Scholarships are given annually. |
