Amanah Scholars Foundation was created to reduce financial barriers for students pursuing higher education, with a particular focus on Muslim students and students from disadvantaged backgrounds.

Many students face challenges accessing traditional financial aid, including limited family support, immigration-related barriers, lack of federal aid eligibility, or the burden of interest-based loans. Our goal is to ensure that students can pursue higher education without the pressure of compromising their religious values by engaging in interest-based financial systems, by providing support that is financially responsible, faith-conscious, and rooted in community care.

We believe that when a community invests in its students, those students can become leaders who give back and strengthen the next generation.
