OUR IMPLEMENTATION INVESTMENTS Summer Institute

The Summer Institute Program aims to help girls discover safe learning opportunities, become learning companions to each other, tackle challenges together, and gain lifelong skills that will empower them.

Summer Institute

The program, organized in collaboration with Koç High School and Şanlıurfa Governorship, focuses on creating a strong learning community where girls aged 14-18 from Istanbul and Şanlıurfa can learn from and with each other. Following the summer program, academic support and one-on-one mentoring are provided to girls in rural areas to help them continue their education.

In the 2023 and 2024 Summer Institute programs, a total of 80 girls from Koç High School in Istanbul and the villages of Giyimli and Sugeldi in Şanlıurfa graduated and joined the Suna’s Daughters girls' community.
