LODEN Scholarship
Sonam Choki
Sonam is from Dogar, Paro, and has recently graduated from Drukgyel Central School. Sonam and her three younger siblings are being raised by their single mother who is a farmer. Along with her mother, their eldest sister helps with the family expenses since being employed from last year. She achieved 81.25 % in class 12 and yet that was only enough to get a half scholarship to study MBBS. Without this scholarship, Sonam will not be able to cover the half of her tuition fees and living expenses. He will study MBBS in Bangladesh.
