the aziza foundation

The Aziza Ghori Charitable Foundation was established in 2003 to honor the memory of our daughter and only child, Aziza Yasmeen, by whom we were graced for ten short but extraordinary years.

It is her radiant and gentle humanity that we seek to honor and share with other children.

Our goal is to make a positive impact on the lives of the neediest children and their communities and to facilitate the efforts of others to make a similar impact. We select projects where financial support can make the greatest impact in the lives of the children.

We review recommendations, including some from colleagues, friends and family, and look at projects of particular promise, beginning with determining whether they meet our objectives, visiting project locations and meeting with associated sponsors and officials before making the decision to provide support.

We will only succeed in our efforts if there's collaboration amongst all of the supporters of the Aziza Foundation. To this end, we urge you to provide input and suggestions that you think may help us in any way and any recommendations of other similar projects that we should explore and undertake. This way we can work together to achieve the Foundation's goal of improving the lives of needy children.

Thank you, Amjad & Fauzia
Co-founders & Aziza's Parents

inspiration

Aziza Yasmeen Ghori (1992-2002)
Aziza left us with the inspiration to see the best in everyone. A bright, energetic and loving presence, she traveled extensively and embraced new places and people with a natural curiosity and an open mind. Aziza taught us to love with an open heart, to include others in our lives and to share what we have while we have it. To honor her gift to us, we aspire to do the same, especially where it may be needed most.
