About Youth Dreamers Foundation

Youth Dreamers Foundation (YDF) - a New Delhi-based NGO dedicated to empowering deserving students through scholarships. Founded by Saurabh Mehrotra and Manish Sharma, YDF collaborates with the Government, HNIs (High Net Worth Individuals), and CSR initiatives to provide financial assistance to students in need. The journey of YDF began when Manish Sharma, an engineer with grassroots-level experience, and Saurabh, who completed his MBA through scholarships, recognized the importance of supporting vulnerable students. In December 2016, they launched their first scholarship program in collaboration with HCL Foundation. Since then, YDF has helped over 18,000 students receive scholarships worth INR 126.6 million.
