Dear Donors and Kind Supporters,

On behalf of the Board of Directors of the EDF Foundation, I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude for your generosity and compassion.

Your support has opened doors to brighter futures through education for thousands of disadvantaged children who were facing uncertainty in their educational path due to family hardship—children at risk of being cut off from education, and with it, from their future.

On June 30, 2025, EDF officially closed the scholarship donation campaign for the 2025 academic year. As of that date, a total of 7,515 scholarships were donated by kind-hearted supporters like you.

Summary of Scholarship Donation for the Academic Year 2025 (as of June 30, 2025)

Scholarship Program	Scholarships Donated
Underprivileged lower secondary students	5,984
High-achieving lower secondary students	191
Upper secondary / Vocational students	882
Students with disabilities in inclusive education	303
Orphans in the three southern border provinces	110
Diploma and university-level students	45
Total	7,515

This means that more than 77% of the 9,734 qualified students awaiting support this year have been given the opportunity to continue their education with stability and dignity.

The figure 7,515 is not just a number. It represents 7,515 hopes, 7,515 families who can now look toward a brighter future, and 7,515 life paths that may forever be transformed—because of your kindness.

Despite the economic challenges, and uncertainty at both national and global levels, you chose to stand with these children.

You gave them the lifeline of education, the chance to stay in school, to learn, to grow, and to build a future they can truly shape on their own.

Though EDF’s scholarships may not be large in monetary value, to a child from a poor family, each one is a priceless opportunity—perhaps the turning point that could change their life forever.

At present, the EDF Scholarship Team is coordinating with schools across the country where the 7,515 sponsored students are currently enrolled or have expressed intent to continue their studies. We are verifying the required documents and confirming students' enrollment status before transferring scholarship funds to schools and delivering student information to their donors. We expect the entire process to be completed within the first semester of the 2025 academic year.

As of July 1, 2025, EDF is now accepting early scholarship donations for the 2026 academic year to ensure we are ready to support the next group of students applying for help later this year.
