Hope Fund

 

Program Summary

The Hope Fund Undergraduate Scholarship is designed to provide talented Palestinian youth who possess leadership potential with an opportunity to pursue an undergraduate degree in the United States. It targets Palestinian refugees living below the poverty line throughout the Mideast, but especially in the West Bank, Gaza Strip, Jordan, Lebanon and Syria, where the needs are most urgent. The program is the result of the generosity and commitment of Dr. Fahim Qubain, with support and cooperation from AMIDEAST’s offices in West Bank/Gaza, Jordan, and Lebanon. Since its inception in 2000, nearly 30 bright young men and women have begun their undergraduate studies in the United States.

 

Main Goals

  • Expand educational opportunity for youth of Palestinian background living in Lebanon, Jordan, or the West Bank and Gaza, particularly those living in refugee camps
  • Encourage youth with leadership potential and desire to give back to their communities

Program Results

  • Nearly 30 young women and men have received four-year scholarships from U.S. higher educational institutions since the establishment of the Hope Fund in 2000.
  • Participating schools include Augustana, Bridgewater, Columbia, Guilford, Hollins, Illinios, Manhattanville, Randolph-Macon, Roanoke, and Swarthmore Colleges and Washington and Lee University.
