Sugun Thomas Foundation (STF)

Susidharan S is studying B.Tech IT 2nd  year at SSN College of Engineering, Chennai.

He completed his 10th  at Government Hr Sec School, Kammamballi, with 82.4% and his 12th at  MTV Matriculation Hr Sec School, Krishnagiri with 96.1%.

Susidharan father, Mr. Saravanan, works as a farmer, earning an average monthly income and supports his family. His mother, Mrs. Deepa, is a homemaker. He has a younger brother, Tharanidharan, who is currently studying in the 12th std.

His family’s financial situation had deteriorated to the point where continuing his education seemed impossible. With no other option in sight, his father asked him to discontinue his studies and look for work.  For Susidharan, this was a heart-breaking moment. Having worked tirelessly to excel in academics, he was unwilling to let poverty dictate his future. Instead of giving up, he approached his college’s scholarship department and explained his situation. Recognizing his academic merit, determination, and genuine financial need, the department referred him to STF for scholarship assistance. His ambition is to get placed in a reputed IT company and support his parents, who have sacrificed vastly for his education, and ensure that his younger brother is able to complete his studies without facing similar financial obstacles.
