Scholarships for a purpose-driven ecosystem

What we offer

We provide more than financial assistance. We seek out promising young people to nurture their potential, to invest in their future, and connect them to fellow leaders committed to creating positive change.

A leadership community

Ruwwad Zayed

The Ruwwad Zayed program is for exceptional young Emiratis and Arabs who are committed to service and prepared to lead with purpose. Rooted in the values of the UAE, the program offers the opportunity, guidance, and community to help future leaders imagine and build a better world together.

A legacy partnership

Miracle of Saadiyat

This program sponsors Emirati MA and PhD students to pursue studies in two priority sectors for the UAE - agriculture and food security - at the University of Arizona, in recognition of the legacy relationship between Saadiyat Island and the American university. This program is part of a larger initiative, the Miracle of Saadiyat, which celebrates the vision of the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan.

Building hope

Gaza Medical Students

This special initiative is supporting Palestinian medical students, providing them with fully-accredited internships at regional universities. Once they become qualified doctors, the participants hope to return home to help rebuild Palestine’s medical system.
