We must support the future of palestine
Since its establishment in 2017 by a group of Palestinian-Americans in Chicago, the Palestinian Students Scholarship Fund (PSSF) has been dedicated to empowering Palestinian students to pursue their dreams through higher education. Our founders recognized the severe lack of funding and support for Palestinian university students during their visits to Palestine. These students encounter substantial economic, social, and financial challenges, along with discrimination that is often overlooked.
With the generous support of donors like you, PSSF now provides scholarships to Palestinian students across 14 partner universities. In 2024, we proudly launched our newest program, The Gaza Initiative, further expanding our reach and impact.
At PSSF, every dollar you donate goes directly to scholarships—transforming aspirations into reality. Your support is an invaluable investment in the future of Palestinian students and the broader community. Together, we are making higher education accessible to resilient and determined students who continue to strive forward despite numerous challenges.
Our commitment goes beyond financial assistance. Members of the PSSF Board of Directors travel to Palestine each year at their own expense to meet with scholarship recipients and university administrations. These visits foster strong relationships with the students and institutions we support, ensuring that PSSF continues to fulfill its mission of helping underprivileged Palestinian students succeed in higher education. With your continued support, we can expand our efforts and make an even greater impact.

It depends on each student, but we try to fully sponsor students!
Some students elect to be shared and we love to do so when possible!
We take students all around the word, but mainly they reside in middle eastern countries.
Our goal as an organization is to help students in Palestine. That is our current priority.
