Donors supporting education are true architects of social progress: Governor

Hyderabad: Governor Shiv Pratap Shukla said education donors play a vital role in nation-building, adding that financial support for education is a long-term investment in an empowered society and a stronger future.

Education donors help transform young lives

According to him, the Trust has awarded scholarships worth several crores to thousands of meritorious and economically disadvantaged students. Moreover, it has extended support without any discrimination based on caste, religion or community.
