The Samoon Foundation, named after the Garhwali word "Samoon," meaning giving selflessly without expecting returns, is committed to the betterment of humanity. Founded by Vinod Jethuri, Samoon Foundation is a registered NGO under the Indian Society Act of 1860 and operates with the core mission of uplifting economically challenged students. The foundation aims to bridge the gap between dreams and reality for these students by providing scholarships to those in need.
The selection process is thorough, ensuring that only the most deserving students receive the scholarship. It involves verifying the socio-economic background of the applicants through house visits and scrutinizing their academic performance. The final decision rests with the Samoon Foundation, and the scholarship is awarded based on a combination of need and merit.
