RNAQ Ga-Dangme Youth Scholarship Fund

The RNAQ Ga-Dangme Scholarship Support Fund (also reported as the RNAQ Ga-Dangme Youth Scholarship Fund) helps brilliant but needy Ga-Dangme university students keep studying when the cost of education becomes a barrier. The RNAQ Foundation set it up in partnership with the Ga Mantse Foundation, and the fund credits Richard Nii Armah Quaye as its driving vision.

The fund rests on the belief that capable students should not have to stop their studies because costs become unaffordable. It is not meant to pay the fees of every Ga-Dangme student: you must be Ga-Dangme, be a university student, have a strong academic record, and show that cost is a genuine obstacle. Being Ga-Dangme alone is not enough.

Applications are open all the time, with no closing date and no window to miss. Applying earlier does not improve your chances and applying later does not hurt them.

How applications are handled

1. Apply: complete the online form. You can fill it in sections.
2. Review: the Fund Secretariat checks your application against the four conditions.
3. Verification: your Ga-Dangme status and documents are verified. The Fund says the Ga-Dangme verification process is still being agreed with traditional authorities and will be published before applications open.
4. Decision and Support: successful applicants are told the decision and then receive support.
