Dahuni Foundation was named after the late Mrs. Sri Dahuni, the mother of Riyani Indriyati, founder of Dahuni foundation. As a teacher and despite being underprivileged herself, she believed that education should be made available for all, especially for girls in small villages.
She was convinced that education was the only way to get out of poverty.
One of the reasons behind the creation of Dahuni foundation was to pay tribute and to honor the legacy of Mrs. Sri Dahuni.
Dahuni Foundation believes that education is a sustainable investment to end poverty in the long run. Through its scholarship program, Dahuni contributes in finding effective solution to the ongoing cultural practice of endless financial support to family members.
Our mission is to positively impact lives through higher education scholarships and mentorship. Dahuni Foundation was established to contribute to the development of a more independent, and worldly generation capable of elevating not only their own lives, but the lives of others too.
Students under Dahuni’s program get a unique and complete experience of receiving the scholarship, mentorship, and the opportunity to volunteer at its annual educational events.
“While most mentorship programs out there focus on the quantity of their members, Dahuni focuses more on developing personalized mentorship and the quality of each program. Dahuni uses global perspectives that most Indonesian students aren’t familiar with, so it feels refreshing and badly needed.”
“The guidance provided by Dahuni has been invaluable. Dahuni’s perspective on higher education has transformed my view and motivation regarding pursuing a master’s degree. Dahuni instills in me about the importance of discovering our passions and working towards making positive contributions to the society.”
“Dahuni not only helps me reach my goals but also supports my growth, learning, and personal development throughout the process. One of my biggest self-discoveries through Dahuni is to be authentic.”
“Dahuni has a way to welcome its mentees that makes us feel comfortable to open up our minds and hearts without fears or judgments. Being with Dahuni feels like finding a long-lost family member. We feel at home.”
