Scholar stories
Behind every grade is a dream
“After river erosion devastated my family, financial aid from Hridoya Bangladesh has kept my education alive.”
From founding the Jagannath University Multimedia Unit (JnMU) to reporting for Manab Zamin, my journalism journey has been driven by passion. I am now studying full-time for the BCS exam to fulfil my mother’s dream. I remain deeply grateful.

“Overcoming this hardship is one of my greatest achievements.”
I have always maintained strong academic performance, but in my third year a sudden illness forced me to stop tutoring and put my education at risk. The Hridoya Bangladesh scholarship gave me the financial support to continue my studies and pursue my goals.

“This support deeply motivates me to study with greater dedication and strive toward my future goals.”
Through hard work and dedication, I proudly achieved a GPA-5 in my SSC examination. Receiving a scholarship from Hridoya Bangladesh has significantly eased my family’s financial burden and allowed me to focus on my education.

“Your monthly scholarship provides vital support by covering my tutoring costs.”
Living and studying in Bogura places a heavy financial burden on my family. My goal is to attend a good college after 10th grade and eventually pursue higher education at a university. I am deeply grateful for your support and ask for your prayers for my future.
