Swayam

Swayam is a pioneer in peer-to-peer social investing. We offer ordinary people the opportunity to become angel investors in the education of talented students, in exchange for a share of their future income. Under the terms of the Swayam Fellowship offered to students, they return a pre-specified percentage of their income over a fixed number of years to Swayam, upon graduating and entering the job market. Swayam channels these funds back to the Angels who invested in these students’ education, as returns on their investment.

  We have just found funding for our first student. We are now looking for funds for the second student from India who has just been admitted to the Electrical Engineering department at Stanford. He won't be able to make it without this help - if you'd like to be a part of Swayam's beginning and help a student get an education, please drop a note to pilot@swayam.org.
