Yalçın Sabancı Education Foundation
The Yalçın Sabancı Education Foundation was established in accordance with the general
objectives and fundamental principles of Turkish National Education to provide education and
training opportunities for talented children and young people in need of financial support.
YASA Holding supports successful students selected from all regions of Turkey who are in
need of financial support, loyal to Atatürk’s principles and reforms, and have national
feelings by providing them with non-repayable scholarships. In response to the need for
qualified maritime personnel in the rapidly developing maritime industry, YASA Holding
provides scholarships to students at Istanbul Technical University Maritime Faculty, Piri
Reis University, Dokuz Eylül University School of Maritime Business and Management,
Karadeniz Technical University Sürmene Faculty of Marine Sciences, and Yıldız Technical
University’s Mechanical Engineering, Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering departments.
Today, these students are in a position to support children and young people in need through
the Group’s institutions.
