The Shakti
Scholarship 2026-27 is a personal philanthropic initiative
by Swathi Kantamani Charitable Trust, created to nurture and empower
tribal girl students from Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. The
program supports girls studying in Class 11, and provides a long-term
commitment to continue supporting them through Undergraduate (UG)/Postgraduate
(PG) education until completion of their degree. The initiative
focuses on tribal (ST/NT/DNT) girl students who can speak Telugu (mother
tongue not mandatory). Many of these students face financial, social, and
geographic barriers that put them at high risk of educational discontinuity.
The Scholarship Program aims to break this cycle by providing sustained,
multi-year support. The program is
designed as a holistic education and capability-building intervention,
integrating: Annual financial
scholarships, and A structured Scholar
Development Curriculum offering academic support, career guidance,
psychometric assessments, skill-building, mentorship, and life-skills
development. The initiative aims
to identify and support talented, economically disadvantaged tribal girls
across Andhra Pradesh and Telangana during the most critical academic years
where dropout risks are highest. About Swathi
Kantamani Charitable Trust Swathi Kantamani
