Karam Scholars
We cultivate new leaders by supporting Syrian refugee students in Turkey and Jordan on their higher education journey.
DONATEOvercoming the Obstacles
Karam Scholars provides mentorship and financial aid to Syrian students attending university in Turkey and Jordan. College is a challenging, critical time for many young people—the challenges can be monumental for young refugees. Between language barriers, financial burdens, and the complexities of a new country’s college application process, the obstacles can feel insurmountable.
Without a strong support system in place, a refugee’s college career can get derailed before it even begins. The impact of this lost opportunity can be devastating for a young person, their family, and ultimately, for the future of Syria. That’s why Karam Scholars exists.

A Bright Future Awaits
In addition to scholarships, we offer personalized, practical guidance and encouragement, helping our Scholars navigate the process, from application to graduation, while exposing them to different potential pathways to success.
We believe every student has the potential to do great things. With the right knowledge, tools, and resources, they can make informed and empowered decisions about their futures. We help them connect their passions and ambitions to a realistic understanding of the path they’ll take to get there. And then we watch them thrive.
