Scholarship Details
The Danladi Yunana Foundation (DYF) is a registered non-profit organization (CAC No: RC–7645226) based in Jalingo, Taraba State, Nigeria. The foundation is committed to empowering young people from underserved communities who face limited access to quality education.
DYF was founded by Dr. Danladi Yunana, whose inspiring journey from growing up in a low-income neighborhood in Maiduguri with parents who had no formal education, to earning three academic degrees across Africa, Europe, and Australia—reflects the transformative power of education and resilience.
Driven by this vision, DYF focuses on expanding educational access, mentorship, and leadership opportunities—starting in Taraba State and extending across Northern Nigeria.
