The Sikh Youth Scholarship http://www.sikhyouthscholarship.org Educate. Encourage. Inspire. Wed, 18 Jan 2012 20:56:37 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0 SYS Update http://www.sikhyouthscholarship.org/sys-update http://www.sikhyouthscholarship.org/sys-update#comments Wed, 18 Jan 2012 20:56:37 +0000 admin http://www.sikhyouthscholarship.org/?p=242 We are currently joining forces with Sikh Reach (Saanjh Sikh Scholarship), whose mission is to work with parents, students, and community members to encourage higher education in the American Sikh community by providing scholarships and mentorships to Sikh students currently in high school or college to facilitate academic, extracurricular, personal, and career development.

Saanjh has been mostly prominent in the west coast and midwest and would like to reach out to the east coast to provide the same great opportunities to young aspirational Sikh youth. We are now looking for volunteers to help spread the message about the scholarship program. Please send me a message via Facebook or send me an email at maneetk [at] gmail.com if you are able to lend a helping hand.
