About us

OUR MISSION Karam Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping people help themselves. We seek to restore the dignity and quality of life for people affected by conflict by eliminating barriers to success through innovative education, sustainable development, and community-driven aid. Guided by the aspirations of the people we serve, we pursue this mission with compassion, transparency, and generosity. THE KARAM STORY Karam Foundation was founded in the summer of 2007 in Chicago –a small non-profit organization determined to do big things. Our vision was to give what was needed to those who needed it, anywhere around the world. Nine years ago we started with a food drive in the south side of Chicago. Today, Karam’s impact expands across Syria, Turkey, and the US.

    Mohammed’s journey from child laborer to computer engineer proves that education is the key to unlocking endless possibilities. Mohammed was one of the first children to join Karam Family program, along with his family. He had been out of school for over three years and was working long hours at a gas station, a job considered dangerous for a child. In 2015, Mohammed's family received support from the program, allowing him to return to school starting in the 9th grade. He continued his studies and successfully graduated from high school. Mohammed was also among the first participants in the studio program, graduating in its inaugural ceremony. Just one month ago, Mohammed graduated as a computer engineer. As we kick off our back-to-school campaign, let's remember that every child deserves the opportunity to learn and grow. Join us in supporting the next generation of leaders. #BackToSchoolWithKaram #Education #BacktoSchool #SyrianRefugees
