Drive to Inspire – Africa LBG (DTI-A) and the Sanjeev Mansotra Foundation (SMF) are pleased to announce a scholarship partnership, reinforcing a shared commitment to empowering young Africans and supporting impactful initiatives across the continent.
Drive to Inspire – Africa LBG is a non-profit organisation, dedicated to empowering young Africans primarily through education, mentorship, and scholarship opportunities. DTI-A was founded by Nana Adjoa Hackman, a Ghanaian corporate lawyer, entrepreneur and advocate for youth empowerment. The organisation focuses on bridging educational inequality and supporting brilliant but underprivileged students and has built its mission around providing educational support, mentorship, and long-term empowerment opportunities for underprivileged but brilliant young women.
The Sanjeev Mansotra Foundation is a philanthropic organisation founded by Mr. Sanjeev Mansotra, Chairman of the Planet One Group. SMF is aimed at supporting impactful projects across diverse regions focusing on education, healthcare and sustainable development to uplift communities and create lasting positive change. The Foundation was established as a voluntary social responsibility initiative, on the firm belief that expanded access to quality education is a bedrock for sustainable economic growth and prosperity. SMF currently has initiatives in Ghana, Guinea, Togo, Seirra Leone and India among others.
Under the partnership agreement, SMF will provide financial support to DTI-A’s scholarship
programme, enabling scale-up in both reach and impact. This funding will increase the number of scholarships awarded and expand access to tertiary education for more deserving young women.
This partnership will also offer opportunities for DTI-A scholarship beneficiaries to study at the University of Stirling, UK (Ras Al Khaimah Campus), upon going through the university’s entry requirements and gaining admission. While DTI-A’s support has been primarily focused on Ghana, it has begun extending its scholarship reach to other African countries. Through partnerships with organisations such as SMF, this expansion can be sustained.
Through this collaboration, both organisations aim to scale impact and create sustainable pathways for academic and professional advancement for deserving students. This partnership reflects a strategic alignment between both organisations to drive meaningful change, expand access to opportunities, and contribute to long-term development outcomes, and represents a significant step forward in strengthening access to higher education for disadvantaged students across Africa. By combining resources, expertise, and a shared vision, both organisations reaffirm their commitment to empowering the next generation of African leaders through education.
