Talal Al-Hothal said, “So far the programme has provided 125 scholarships to students inside Qatar from various universities, with the support of the General Directorate of Endowment. Thanks to this scholarship programme, Education Above All aims to provide educational opportunities to create a future for all students.
“We are working with our partners such as Qatar University, to provide support and create fair educational opportunities that allow all students to access quality education.”
