The Circassian Education Foundation was established and registered in 2005 in New Jersey and approved by the United States government as a charitable non-profit Foundation (501c3). Its mission is to promote education, culture, knowledge and acquisition of modern life skills to all Circassians in the USA and the world. It shall specifically emphasize the inspiration and support of children and youth toward higher education.

Over the past 20 years, our Foundation has awarded scholarships to over 700 college and university students with a value close to $800,000 US Dollars. The overhead is extremely low and there are no paid employees. The Foundation work is done solely by unpaid volunteers. The great majority of donations go to the mission and the cause of supporting education.

The Circassian Education Foundation took as its first and premier project the establishment of a scholarship program for the benefit of the Circassian youth in the USA. This scholarship program has been a story of great success, conducted with the highest level of professionalism and integrity. Other educational projects include the college savings matching program, the top university scholarship and various educational lectures and workshops in addition to the Circassian education endowment.

We would like to ask you to lend your support to the education of our children and youth. All donations are welcome. For the purpose of sustainability, we encourage everyone to make regular monthly donation.
