International Paper APPM Limited (IP-APPM) has announced the launch of two programmes-Project Saathi and IP India Foundation Scholarship, to ensure continued education to the meritorious students of underserved families.

Overall around 60 school students will benefit from these 2 programmes initially in the state of Andhra Pradesh. IP India Foundation (IPIF) Scholarship is aimed to attract and retain a growing body of diverse, qualified, accomplished and ambitious students. IPIF Scholarship will support 28 students, from 6 districts of Andhra Pradesh, who despite the adversity still secured excellent marks in their 10th standard exams.

These students were also provided solar lamps by IP-APPM under its Project kSitija last year to prepare for their board exams.

Project Saathi is a wholly employee owned project, wherein significant contributions were made by over 100 IP employees to support 32 meritorious students.
