The most deserving are being overlooked
The Strivers of Sri Lanka are consistently underestimated and overlooked. We exist to change that.
The problem
High-achieving students from public schools and under-resourced backgrounds are uninformed, misinformed, and left with no guidance on applying to the top-tier colleges of the world.
Our vision
A free of charge support structure offering personalized guidance throughout the entire application journey.
The network
In the long run, we build, nurture, and maintain a community of students, graduates, and professionals who give back to Sri Lanka in a variety of ways.
Sustainability
We will become a sustainable organization that actively facilitates the network in giving back.
Founded by strivers, for strivers
The Strivers’ Network was co-founded by Sri Lankan students who navigated the process themselves.
Founders
“I do not want highly deserving students who can do so much for Sri Lanka to underestimate themselves. I do not want them to turn away just because they were not informed.”
“We are overlooking the most deserving. It’s time we fixed that.”
“The real investment of studying at a top-tier university is putting yourself in a position surrounded by infinite opportunities and ideas.”
“It is the gap in guidance, resources and aspiration between these groups of students that we at The Strivers’ Network are striving to bridge.”
“Our youth deserve the education of their dreams, and a lack of support should not impede that.”
