North South Foundation (NSF) is a non-profit organization that was established 37 years ago in 1989. The mission of the organization is to provide college scholarships to economically poor, bright kids in India. These scholarships are funded by fees collected from educational bees conducted across nearly 90 chapters in the US. Over 20,000 scholarships have been disbursed thus far, changing the lives of many scholarship recipients and their families!
NSF conducts various contests including Spelling, Vocabulary, Math, Geography, Science, Brain, Public Speaking, History and Essay Writing, over different weekends between March and April each year.
