Mohamed S. Farsi Foundation Endowed Scholarship

Purpose:
The Mohamed S. Farsi Foundation was founded in 2009 by Hani M.S. Farsi to honor the lifetime of charitable work carried on by his father and to continue and expand upon his philanthropic legacy. The foundation is an international foundation and will recognize no barriers of race, religion, or culture. The foundation will be active in three areas: the improvement of healthcare; the advancement of education and the protection of our global heritage.
A not-for-profit organization, the Mohamed S. Farsi Foundation is funded by a portion of the profits of Hani Farsi’s investments which operate on similar benevolent entrepreneurial principles. Guided by the example of Mohamed Farsi and by a commitment to make a difference in three core areas of human endeavor, the Mohamed S. Farsi Foundation seeks projects which show a return on investment in the form of a measurable and proven impact with long-term sustainability.
