The Michael & Susan Dell Foundation was founded in 1999 through the sales revenue generated from the sales of Dell Inc. shares. Since then, more than $1.3 billion has been allocated to help children and communities living in poverty. In the foundation\u2019s early years, the main goal was focused on improving children\u2019s education and health in Central Texas. However, a\u00a0few years later on, the foundation\u2019s scope has extended to national and to global. Today, MSDF operates in United States, Central Texas, India and South Africa.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Dell Young Leaders Program was created by the\u00a0Michael & Susan Dell Foundation, to address the education issues of South African children. The program helps up to 100 South Africans from poor areas across the University of Cape Town and University of Pretoria, who wish to pursue a professional degree. A bursary amount of R150 000 will be granted as well as laptop and allowance for textbooks and other basic educational needs.<\/p>\n
Work opportunities may also be provided to bursary holders according to availability. Bursary holders will also be encouraged\u00a0to participate in a variety of activities that will help improve students\u2019 academic skills and on-the-job skills. The program will also furnish wrap-around support to students by offering qualified staff and program team to address student\u2019s academic and psycho-social issues to help them secure successful\u00a0university completion.<\/p>\n
