Second, helping to fight for the intelligence of the nation’s children. Third, students who have been helped by scholarships will have an extraordinary impact on thousands of the next generation of young Indonesians.
“HA IPB University since a few years ago made a scheme that we are determined to contribute to this scholarship with at least 1000 students per year. We have a solid plan that those 1000 students will give back to their alma mater to become donors themselves in the future,” he said. (IAAS/ZRT)
