Project overview

Education is a path out of poverty. However, many students from low-income families fail to access education financing options, such as bank loans and scholarships, because of eligibility assessments that are focused on their current finance or personal circumstances.

UBS Optimus Foundation

Your donation will be used in a programme that provides upfront funding for students’ study costs. It is an investment based on a student’s potential to thrive in the future. In return for the study costs funding, the student commits to pay a percentage of their future income over a specified period of time. The student’s potential is matched with the best education option for skills in demand, together with career guidance and mentorship. Repayment begins once the student earns an income above a minimum threshold. The repayments from graduates for the financing of new students and ensure financial sustainability over the long term.
