Sponsor a Scholar

Please consider sponsoring, in part, an Abdul Ahad Guru Scholar. If you live in Western New York and choose to sponsor, you will have the opportunity to meet the Scholar, learn about their background, and stay connected as they bring their new knowledge back to Kashmir. This is an opportunity for cross-cultural exchange, learning and growth for both you and the Scholar. You may choose to sponsor a specific Scholar (biographies available on the Scholars page). We appreciate your support.

$500: U.S.-based (partial) cost of living for One Scholar up to 6 weeks

$1,500: International travel for One Scholar

$2,000: U.S.-based (partial) cost of stay (including expenses such as food, living expenses, course arrangement) for Four Scholars, for 6 weeks
