Who can apply? What are the requirements?
Young people aged 18 to 35 of any nationality, ethnicity, or religious belief may apply, provided their projects have no political purposes. No specific educational qualifications are required: what matters is the strength of the idea they want to pursue and the desire to develop it with passion and dedication.
The Foundation strongly believes in the value of personal stories and talent in all its forms, offering space to those who often do not find a voice elsewhere.
Who can benefit from Majid’s support, and how to apply?
Individuals or groups aged between 18 and 35 with a heartfelt project they wish to realize are welcome and encouraged to submit their application by sending the Foundation detailed documentation clearly describing the project’s objectives, feasibility, expected outcomes, beneficiaries, and involved organizations or institutions, along with a thorough financial plan.
The Foundation’s Committee will review this documentation and evaluate it based on the following criteria: relevance and feasibility of the initiative, innovation and scope of its potential impact, and, last but not least, the financial sustainability of the proposal.
