Dr. Tipu Alam, a distinguished recipient of the Human Welfare Foundation (HWF) scholarship, has qualified for post-doctoral research in the United States. A native of Banshthupi, Salaidanga in Gazol, Malda, West Bengal, Dr. Alam’s academic journey was once supported by HWF, and he has since made remarkable strides in his field.
Born to Dilsad Sekh, a cultivator, and Manjila Bibi, Dr. Alam comes from a modest background but has always demonstrated exceptional academic prowess. He completed his early education at Salaidanga High School and Danogram High School, later earning a B.Sc. and M.Sc. in Chemistry (Honors) from Aligarh Muslim University in 2015 and 2017, respectively. He went on to pursue a Ph.D. in Chemistry at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Guwahati, which he completed in 2024. His doctoral research centered on Photo and Electrochemical Strategies for C-N Bond Formation.
Dr. Alam’s academic journey is further highlighted by his impressive performance in national-level examinations. In 2017, he secured an All-India Rank (AIR) of 97 in the CSIR-Junior Research Fellowship (NET), alongside an AIR-580 in the Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE) and an AIR-846 in the Joint Admission Test for M.Sc. (JAM) in 2015.
Now, as he embarks on post-doctoral research in the United States, Dr. Alam continues to push the boundaries of chemistry with his innovative work. The Human Welfare Foundation expresses its pride in his achievements and extends its heartfelt congratulations to Dr. Alam for this remarkable milestone. HWF wishes him continued success in all his future endeavors and remains committed to supporting students like him in reaching their full potential.
Dr. Alam’s success story exemplifies the impact of HWF’s scholarship initiative, which empowers bright and deserving students to achieve their academic and research aspirations, ultimately contributing to the advancement of society.
Human Welfare Foundation has officially kicked off its School Kit Distribution program for the academic year 2023-24. The launch events took place in two selected villages in Madhya Pradesh.
Under the ambit of the School Kit Project, the foundation is committed to aiding students hailing from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. These are individuals who are at a heightened risk of discontinuing their education or have siblings and neighbors who have already dropped out or are on the verge of doing so. The core objective of this initiative is to mitigate the incidence of school dropouts by offering crucial support to underprivileged students and their families. This support is materialized through the distribution of comprehensive school kits, comprising backpacks and essential stationary supplies.
The issue of school dropout is inherently complex and perilous, given its tendency to occur all too easily and frequently. A single variable among the mentioned factors can lead a student to falter in their academic journey and eventually abandon schooling altogether. The risk of school dropout is particularly pronounced in families grappling with a low standard of living, compounded by the challenges of poverty and marginalization. The School Kit Distribution program endeavors to break this cycle by providing tangible assistance to those in need, thereby fostering a conducive environment for sustained education.
