The Scholarship Community
Despite public primary schools being free of cost in Bangladesh,
many students still drop out of school to work and earn in order to support their families.
Your scholarship helps a child attend school and support their families at the same time.

Community Impact
Every scholarship begins with shipping a mobile phone to the parent of the student. Then they create their own mobile bank account
using that phone, to start receiving their child's scholarships directly, every month.

The scholarship app
In Bangladesh, while 98% of children enroll in school, 2 million children drop out to work before achieving literacy in order to support their families financially. On the flipside, Bangladesh has a diaspora population of 10 million in advanced economies who wish to make an impact on their homeland. AlterYouth, imagine Uber for scholarships, is a C2C scholarship app enabling users from around the world to start scholarships directly for financially struggling students in Government Primary Schools of Bangladesh, through digital banking.
