THE AZIZ FOUNDATION
Established in 2015, the Aziz Foundation is inspired by the Islamic values and teachings to support the most disadvantaged communities within society.
For the past few years, the Foundation primarily focused its efforts on grant making, however, they have now decided to focus solely on widening access and increasing opportunities for British Muslims through their Masters scholarship programme.
The programme will support the development of British Muslims who are dedicated to bringing positive change to their communities and beyond.
Through the programme, the Foundation hope to nurture confident, articulate public leaders from a Muslim background who are able to critically engage with public narratives and address the social challenges facing British Muslim communities and wider society.
The Aziz Foundation offer 100% tuition fee scholarships to British Muslims who are eligible for home fee status and are looking to improve British society through:
Representation and Advocacy - To facilitate better representation and contribution to civil society
Community Development - To raise aspirations and standards within British Muslim communities
To date, the Foundation have funded over 350 British Muslims to pursue their Master’s degree and have spent over £4.9m on ensuring access to postgraduate education.
