A new way to help

Keep talented students in university

Too many students are held back not by ability but by access to funding. ScholarUz turns small contributions from many donors into real scholarships, paid directly toward tuition and university costs. We support students at home in Uzbekistan and across Central Asia, as well as Central Asian students who have earned a place at top universities abroad, including in the United States.

  • Give any amount. Contribute whatever you can toward a student you choose.
  • Follow your impact. Watch each student's progress toward their goal in real numbers.
  • Funds reach the school. Money is disbursed to a student's institution and reconciled openly.
