PARSA, a
recently formed Persian community foundation, is inviting student organizations
and other nonprofits to submit grant proposals by February 15. PARSA is keen on
identifying and supporting innovative change makers with effective business
plans in the following areas:
- Preservation and advancement of Persian arts and
culture;
- Development of leaders through education and
awards; and
- Civic engagement through voter registration and
nonprofit capacity building
A few examples of our focus areas include:
- Micro grants for student-run or University-based
organizations;
- Youth summer or holiday camps;
- Programs for the elderly;
- Documentaries and other artistic programs with
potential for broad appeal, awards and/or commercial success; and
- Accurate 2010 Census.
We encourage grants seekers to begin the inquiry
process well in advance of the due date. For more information, please visit:
