Since its inception the Foundation has donated in excess of $550,000, with the goal of raising $1 million to promote Ancient Iranian Studies at Harvard University, enabling Iranian students to pursue or continue their post-graduate education in the ancient history, culture, and languages of their homeland.
The Foundation operates under the gracious auspices of H.I.M. Shahbanou Farah Pahlavi and in accordance with U.S. and IRS laws and regulations pertaining to 501(c)(3) organizations.

Indeed , losing a chid is the hardest thing ever and sadly she lost two. I can't even imagine what she goes through ,...
This is such a great cause. Harvard is a great school and there are so many talented Iranian kids out there that can benefit from this.
