Projects

We have two primary areas of focus.

Firstly, support for carefully selected stand-alone projects, namely with NGOs looking to scale or make their social impact model more sustainable. Here we consider ourselves partners for good, linking projects with resources and professionals in our network that can facilitate their strategic objectives.
.

Secondly, support for individuals pursuing a higher education that are driven and passionate but do not have the financial means. We do this through a portfolio of global scholarships, but with a particular focus on the regions we come from, Palestine, Lebanon, and Spain.

Scholarships in Spain

Our portfolio of scholarships in Spain encourages the development of subject areas we are passionate about, namely, finance, technology, and the arts. Therefore, we seek students that show promise in these subjects and encourage the institutions to develop the faculties and course content to be competitive in those fields.

Fintech Specialisation at UMA

Fundación Kareema collaborates with the FINTECH Chair at the University of Málaga, an initiative that promotes education, research, and knowledge transfer in financial technologies such as blockchain, artificial intelligence, and big data.

We firmly believe that technologies like distributed ledger technology (DLT) play a fundamental role in democratizing financial services and promoting financial inclusion for all. Through this project, Fundación Kareema reaffirms its commitment to technological innovation and sustainable development in key sectors for the future.

Scholarships in Lebanon & Palestine

Our portfolio of scholarships in Lebanon and Palestine seeks to support students passionate about improving their social standing through education and positively impacting their communities. We support the neediest and most deserving students, regardless of their field of study. Some of the institutions and organizations we currently work with:

Through Las Libélulas, those who receive assistance are guided towards sources of support for their primary, administrative, legal, employment, and educational needs.

Regenerative Agriculture

We are proud to partner with Commonland and Alvelal to support regenerative agriculture in Spain. Our first collaboration focuses on planting aromatic plants in Granada’s altiplano region.
