money, as and a Dell laptop.

Dell Investment: Undergraduate Degree and Extras
Over the years, the DDF has established a number of training programs and initiatives with the overall
objective of addressing the existing need to equip young adults with both life and educational skills.
For the past two years, Dell has enjoyed a successful relationship with the University of Venda through our
Dell Bursary Program, which was joined in 2012 by five more students. Dell does not only provide funding for
these undergraduates; we also provide them with their own Dell laptop, campus residential fees, a monthly
personal allowance, books, travel money, additional tuition if necessary and ad hoc medical fees.
