The 9th MA regional educational contests of the North South Foundation were held on March 28 and 29 at Fitchburg State College (FSC). 

Everyone who participated in an NSF bee is a winner since they learn something new every time they participate.  NSF contests are a journey.  Congrats to everyone who embarked and/or continued on this journey this April.

Over 200 contestants registered for Spelling, Vocabulary, Math, Geography and Essay Writing contests, combined.

The North South Foundation (NSF) is a non-profit, tax-exempt and voluntary organization that awards merit scholarships to exceptionally qualified needy students in India, entering colleges, regardless of religion, gender, caste or geographic origin.  In addition, NSF organizes activities such as spelling, math, vocabulary and geography contests for children of Indian origin living in USA.
