The NiFESS Scholarship and Grant Trust Fund is a financial reserve backed by private organizations and NGOs to help cushion the effects of the Nigerian Economic vulnerability by offering financial aid to 10,000 (Ten thousand) students and professionals of social sciences and related courses/faculties. This initiative is a response to the inadequate financial aid and sponsorship made available to social sciences/management students undergoing studies in Nigerian universities, for this reason we have created the NSGTF as a platform where these students and professionals (members of NiFESS) can access financial aid for free for every academic session.
