SBI Foundation, the corporate social responsibility (CSR) division of the State Bank Group, is currently open to receiving applications for the SBI Youth for India Fellowship initiative. If you are interested, you can submit your application via the official website at youthforindia.org/register.
This fellowship, which spans over 13 months, offers a chance for graduates and young professionals aged 21-32 from urban areas to work together with rural communities and 13 respected non-governmental organizations (NGOs) throughout India.
"The SBI Youth for India program aims to fill the gap that exists between urban youth’s aspiration to contribute to the development sector and the rural reality, as also supplement the lack of qualified human resources with diverse educational and professional backgrounds in the NGOs working at the grassroots level," Sanjay Prakash, Managing Director and CEO of SBI Foundation said.

Candidates applying should be individuals who hold Indian citizenship, Overseas Citizens of India (OCI) status, or citizenship of Bhutan or Nepal, with a strong dedication to advancing sustainable development in rural regions.
