Welcome to the Saïd Foundation We believe in the power of learning to transform lives and communities for the better. Since 1982, the Saïd Foundation has been investing in the talents of young people through postgraduate scholarship awards, and also helping children held back by disadvantage or disability by providing them with opportunities to receive better quality education and care. We aim to enable them all to achieve their potential, so they can create a brighter future for themselves and for others. The priority countries of our programmes are Syria, Palestine, Lebanon, Jordan and the UK.
