Studenica Foundation

The Studenica Foundation is one of the founders and an active participant in the work of the "Dr. Marko Jaric" Foundation for the greatest achievements in physics. An award, which bears the name of Dr. Marko Daric, a Serbian physicist who, while working in the United States, had developed a remarkable career in physics, which was cut short by his untimely death, is given each year to a scientist or group of scientists for outstanding scientific achievements in physics.

Apart from science, the foundation actively support project in the art department. So far, we have awarded scholarships to over 50 young artists. Our scholarships are awarded to the most talented in music, applied arts, fine arts, and acting. Through our cooperation with the Good Voice Foundation, we have expanded this program by providing a scholarship to gifted students of the School of Music Talents in Cuprija. It is a school of significant national importance, and in the world, since apart from it, there are only two other institutions operating with a similar concept: the Central Music School in Moscow and the Jehudi Menjuhin School in London.

The foundation has an alumni program and a volunteer program.
The Studenica Foundation scholarship recipients are our most valuable volunteers. Together with them, we design projects: they help us map out the challenges and needs of young people. So far, over 300 volunteers have been engaged in various projects of the Studenica Foundation.

In addition to our fellows, we have an open program for all interested volunteers who feel they can contribute to our projects. The overall program aims to develop awareness of the importance of philanthropy and culture of giving, to build a community of young people with a humanitarian view of the world who are socially engaged in their communities.

The Studenica Foundation alumni network strengthens alumni connections with our Foundation, but also connects alumni with one another, as well as with current fellows. The Network supports the development and advancement of the Studenica Foundation and strengthens alumni ties with the Foundation. It also contributes to mutual professional and leadership support, professional networking of alumni, and the development of young students with mentoring and friendship.
