Educate a child and empower a new generation of world leaders.
At Sixteen Foundation, education is at the forefront of our organisation. We support young students with
financial aid to pursue their education. Your contribution potentially helps to cover the school’s fees
and their resources for the duration of their course, or in its entirety.
Many talented students face financial barriers that prevent them from pursuing their chosen path.
Whether it is low-income families in the UK or orphaned children in Bangladesh, by funding scholarships,
you help students unlock their potential and achieve academic and career goals, allowing another child
to dare to dream.
Hear directly from the students whose education you have helped transform through scholarships.
"As a family of 4, Sixteen Foundation have kindly sponsored our entire family, with support of our education in Bangladesh. We lost our father and my mother has always been worried about our future. This has been a lifeline for our family and we are forever grateful."

"I am 8 years old and was out of education, until Sixteen Foundation help pay for my school fees. Without their support I would be at home and not learning."

"During my studies at Jamea Al Khauthar, I enjoy Seerah thoroughly as I feel a spiritual boost in lessons and love learning about the life of the Prophet (Peace be upon him). I admire the way my teacher explains in detail about the subject. I also enjoy dhikr time which takes place before Isha Salah, where I can sit and reflect after a busy day of studies. I am deeply grateful for Sixteen Foundation’s support in this."

Student B, Lancashire
"Thank you to Sixteen Foundation for sponsoring my course for 2026: TEFL Certification. This will enable me to gain an extra qualification on the methodologies of incorporating movement, multi-sensory and play-based techniques in a classroom. The impact this course will have on the opportunities for myself, my students and the community is priceless."
