About me
I work for LinkedIn Corporation and manage a non-profit organization. Iduka is a US 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization whose mission is to promote post-secondary education through a scholarship and interest free micro-loan program.
Because I believe no one should be denied access to post-secondary education based on their financial situation alone, I founded with a group of friends and local volunteers this grassroots all-volunteer organization back in 2008 with the help of a dedicated group of local volunteers.
PROGRAM:
Our program has two major components:
1. Interest free micro-loans: open to all students who meet our basic criteria; and
2. Grants: available only to underserved students and interns.
