Recognizing the importance of education in our Syriac Orthodox communities, Sirazi Foundation, as one of its main objectives, is pleased to sponsor and fund Sirazi Scholarship, Fellowship and Grant (SSFG) program for people of Syriac Orthodox descent throughout the world. This fund is directed by Archdiocese of Syriac Orthodox Church of Eastern United States of America. The primary goal of this fund is to promote and encourage higher education among the Syriac Orthodox communities. We believe that education is the most effective way to preserve and enrich our culture and heritage. Furthermore, we would like to encourage leadership and advancement among our youth in an increasing competitive world.

This program is intended to reach all students who study in North America and other foreign countries. We encourage all eligible students to apply from all over the world. Students who study in North America should apply directly to the address provided in the application form. Students who study in other foreign countries, should send their applications to their respective SSFG representative identified at this brochure. We are very happy to have this opportunity to share with you what gracious God gave us!
