ABOUT THE HOPE FUND

For nearly two decades, the Hope Fund has provided higher educational opportunities in the United States for exceptional Palestinian students living in the West Bank, Lebanon, and Jordan, particularly refugees and others from disadvantaged circumstances. More than 100 Palestinian men and women have been selected based on their character and strong academic qualifications, as well as limited financial resources that pose an obstacle to their pursuit of a higher education.

HOW IT WORKS

ABOUT MSSF

Amideast's MENA Scholarship Support Fund (MSSF) enables highly qualified students from underserved communities in Jordan to pursue undergraduate study in the United States. Through this program, Amideast identifies exceptional students who demonstrate promise, but lack the financial means to attend an American college or university.

MSSF provides support to students admitted to U.S. colleges and universities with generous financial aid packages by closing the gap in cost of attendance.
