About Us : Organization
The educational contests in USA and the scholarships in India are possible due to the hard work of the following family members.
All the charitable work done by North South Foundation was not possible without the guidance and leadership of its founder: Dr. Ratnam Chitturi
US Students participate in educational contests to improve themselves academically and help donate money to India. Indian students who get the donation make the most of it by completing their college education and giving back to the community by volunteering for the Foundation later in life.

Our Regional and National teams of volunteers work tirelessly in various roles (such as Technical Co-ordinators, Judges, Proctors, Graders, Accounting, Chapter Directors, Regional Directors, Fundaising, etc.) to conduct contests in USA. Our volunteers in India have give out more than 2,000 scholarships to needy college going students among the poorest of poor every year. More than 300 volunteer teachers conduct coaching classes for more than 4,500 children in various subjects as well as workshops for contest participants.
Our donors help us to increase the number of scholarships we are able to give to Indian students and to give scholarship awards to the National winners in USA.
