FONNJ’s annual Scholarship Drive is set to end on July 30, 2023.
However, the club is just $2000 short of its $7,000 goal and is hoping the community can help.
“By donating, you can inspire, influence, and encourage community’s upcoming leaders and dreamers to flourish in the future,” Roshan Karmachary, President of the FONNJ, said.

Last year, the club gave out more than $5,000. This drive is only a small piece of the club’s fundraising initiative for its scholarship program. Over the past 33 years, the Friends of Nepal- NJ and the Asha Project has distributed over $168,000 in scholarships to poor children in Nepal.

“We are trying to help close the gap between cost and the ability to get an education for Nepalese students. We want to ensure greater social mobility for future generations, and to encourage these students to do their best to get education,” Dr. Tulsi Maharjan, Founding President of the FONNJ said.

Donations can be mailed to P.O. Box 5015, Somerville, NJ 08876. Donations can also be by credit card through the FONNJ’s website,. The drive ends on July 30, 2023.
