The Punjab Education Endowment Fund (PEEF) is one of the biggest initiatives of its kind for youth empowerment. Started by Chief Minister Punjab Shahbaz Sharif, the program hopes to educate talented yet underprivileged students by way of scholarships.
PEEF Statistics
Young students from all across the country can benefit from the project. According to the Chief Minister, more than 7 billion rupees have been spent on students through PEEF so far, awarding a total of 235,000 scholarships in the process.
The project has been allocated a budget of Rs 17.5 billion. Currently, more than 12000 applications for Masters level programs are under process.
The CM said:
Had the project started 70 years ago, we would have been on an altogether different level in the field of education. Youth development and empowerment is the key to the prosperity of nations.
He added that today many students are benefiting from quality education and that they will help in national development in the future. There should be no concept of rich and poor in educational institutes. The CM believes that PEEF represents a major step towards educating all.
