Some comments from the students:

"I am really grateful and indebted to SHDF for bearing the expenses of my education. It has really boosted my morale and has given me a new confidence... In the future, I would like to help the students like me by giving them the right guidance and offering them full support, be it financial or morale."

"For poor students like me, it is not possible to reach their goals in life due to financial problems, but Sikh Human Development Foundation is making their aims possible. I could not thing of... becoming an engineer without the help of SHDF. After completion of my studies, I would like to help students in need."

"In these days, education seems to be monopoly of the rich only and the dreams of many students are crushed when they can't study due to their economical problems......A wave of courage flowed in my body when I came to know about the scholarships offered by you and to know that there is someone in this world who has undertaken a kind project to help and serve the humanity."

"Our financial problems became a barrier in my studies, but through sikh Human Development Foundation, I am able to continue my studies. I will definitely help poor students who are hard working. I believe in Gareeb Da Moonh Guru Di Golak."

"The biggest problem of our nation is not poverty but illiteracy which keeps people blind and dumb and they cannot raise voice against atrocities done to them......This scholarship has acted like a lighthouse for me."

"My father is bed-ridden. I would like to thank SHDF for extending me financial assistance when I needed it most. As a mark of my gratitude later in life, I would be glad to extend some finances and Seva to my community."

"Now a days, higher education is not for the poor but your scholarship is a light house for those who do not get into higher education because they are poor."

"My father is a driver.........I am finding it immensely difficult to pay my tuition and other charges. Sir, your scholarship will really kindle a new light in me."

"My father is a pensioner. At this stage, it is out of my parents' reach to support my studies. I request you to provide me scholarship. After my degree, I want to serve the people as best as I can."

"My father is a caretaker of the cycle/scooter parking stand at the Guru Nanak Dev University. He is not able to pay my fees. Please grant me this scholarship. I will be really thankful to you for this act of kindness."

"My parents can't afford and find it difficult to make me a professional (father is a driver). For that, I am in dire need of some help. I wish to be a professional in the field of engineering and would work honestly and endlessly to raise the honor of my state and country."

"Without this scholarship, it would have been difficult to meet the expenses of my studies. I am very thankful to SHDF. I propose to teach a needy and poor student free of cost."
