Soroptimist International gives grants to women through the Diamond Education Grants.

Grants range from £100 and £500 a year and women permanently resident in countries where there is a Soroptimist Club may apply but need not be Soroptimists.

In Africa, soroptimist clubs are in Cameroon, the Gambia, Malawi, Mauritius, Nigeria, Seychelles, Sierra Leone, South Africa, Uganda, and Zimbabwe. The closing date for applications is 30 April for the academic year beginning the following Autumn.

Scholarship Application Deadline: April every year.
