The Foundation of Vlad Plahotniuc “Edelweiss” has selected 100 A level students of the 12th grade who will benefit from scholarships in the school year 2017-2018. After receiving the first scholarship, three of the high school students decided to celebrate it with the Edelweiss Founder Vlad Plahotniuc.
Daniel-Nicolae Paraschiv is 18 years old and is studying at the “Orizont” High School in Durlesti. The passion for exact sciences he has inherited from his grandfather, and so far he has managed to achieve impressive results at several national and international Olympiads. “I got 3rd place at the Republican Olympiad in the 7th grade, 2nd place – in the 8th grade, and I was finally the first in mathematics in the 9th grade”, Daniel-Nicolae Paraschiv said, the Edelweiss scholarship holder.
Ilinca Fiodorova is a high school student in the Gordinesti village, Edinet district. She is ambitious and passionate about reading. She writes prose, novellas and novels and Vlad Plahotniuc promised to help her publish her latest novel.
“It is a novel with 25 chapters telling the life of a girl who goes through trials. It’s not a positive character, it’s a negative one. I want to convey the fact that society generates monsters and the very same society condemns them”, Ilinca Fiodorov said, a pupil from the High School in Gordinesti village.
Olesea Panchiv has several passions and she has not yet decided which profession to choose. But she is sure, however, that she will remain in the country.
“I have so many contradictory hobbies, like mathematics, foreign languages and history, and I’m not sure what profession I will have in the future. I’m a family person, a patriot and very attached to home”, Olesea Panchiv said, a pupil from the “Ion Creangă” High School in Cimislia.
At the end of the discussion Vlad Plahotniuc invited young people to visit the state institutions in order to get to know the areas they are interested in.
“We make some trips together, first in politics, then some economic exercises. You are different and you have different interests. That’s why it’s probably better to split you up and invite you to separate areas”, the Edelweiss founder Vlad Plahotniuc said.
The national contest “100 scholarships for young people” organized by the Edelweiss Foundation and dedicated to the 12th grade students from the Republic of Moldova was launched on June 5, 2017 and aims to stimulate pupils with good learning outcomes. The amount of one Edelweiss scholarship is 500 lei per month, which will be given to each winner during the school year 2017-2018 (from September 2017 until May 2018, inclusive).
