"Huma Quşu" Fund in the first half of 2024

The first 6 months of 2024 can be considered successful for the "Huma Quşu" Fund. Thus, the "Small Grants Program" competition for Azerbaijani citizens who want to get bachelor's and master's education in Azerbaijan and abroad, which was first announced last fall, has been concluded. As a result of the evaluation of the applications submitted to the competition and the conducted interviews, a total of 5 participants were awarded with a grant of 2500 AZN, and 1 participant with a grant of 1500 AZN. 

At the beginning of March, Baku European Lyceum and the "Huma Quşu" Fund launched the joint project "Educational support from Baku European Lyceum students". Within the framework of the project, the "Golden Seed" adventure play was shown in the State Song Theater named after Rashid Behbudov to support brave young people who successfully overcome obstacles and achieve high results despite difficult life conditions and who want to continue their education.

The greatest success for our foundation during the reporting period was the selection of Sanan Mirzazadeh as a member of the team that will represent Azerbaijan at NASA's Robot Race to be held in San Diego, USA, despite his limited hearing and speech abilities. Thanks to the campaign launched by the "Huma Quşu" Fund and the contribution of donors, Sanan left for the United States.

As a result of the "Talented students" program, Ranal Gurbanov was awarded 4600 AZN, Aziz Panah 5000 AZN, ADA univercity graduate program-Bibikhanım Samadova 2500 AZN, and Arif Hajiyev and Elmir Dadashov, participants of the Patriotic War, were awarded 1550 AZN and 2120 AZN respectively.

Later, the fund announced "Grant Competition: SPRING CALL" for Azerbaijani citizens who want to study bachelor's, master's and PhD in Azerbaijan and abroad.

At the beginning of May, the presentation ceremony of "Huma Quşu" Fund called "Continuing Life of Courage" took place at the Azerbaijan State University of Economics.

About a month ago, the presentation ceremony of the "Huma Quşu" Educational Support Fund called "A Life with Values" was held at the Embassy of Azerbaijan in Hungary in Budapest.
