As a part of its Mehregan 2010 Grant Cycle, PARSA CF has awarded a $300,000 grant to the non-profit that hosts Camp Ayandeh, a summer camp for Iranian-American teens. The grant will enable IAAB to expand its programming by funding a new office and increasing its paid staff.
The IAAB seeks to address issues facing the Iranian Diaspora through programming that promotes awareness of Iranian culture and community, cultivates leadership in the Diaspora, and connects Iranians across borders.
Founded in 2004, the IAAB has hosted Camp Ayandeh—an annual summer leadership camp for Iranian-American high school students—for the past five years.
This is the fifth grant PARSA CF has awarded IAAB in four years.
