University Success

Helping Students Achieve, Learn, and Flourish Every Step of the Way

Why University Success

Launched in 2024, YDF’s University Success Program removes more than just financial barriers. We build confidence, agency and employability through mentorship, targeted support for girls in STEM, digital skills and partnerships with institutions to make higher education pathways more accessible and successful.

Today students face lack of guidance, limited self-advocacy skills, societal pressure and employability gaps — University Success equips learners with the resources and mentors to thrive in university and beyond.
