Why We Do This
Since 2015, Siavash and Samaneh Tahbazof, through the Tahbazof Family Foundation, have played a pivotal role in advancing education, health, and child welfare across Iran, Cambodia, and the U.S. Their steadfast support has funded over 20 projects in underserved areas—ranging from neonatal care to the construction of inclusive educational facilities, including one of the first large-scale Autism-focused schools in Iran. The following is a chronological record of their impactful contributions.
How We've Helped
Additionally, the Tahbazof Family has funded numerous summer camps and recreational trips for girls from orphanages in Kerman and Tehran Provinces of Iran between 2020 and 2025. In the United States, the Tahbazof Family and their Foundation have contributed continuously to our Holiday Helping Hand Program, which distributes food packages, vouchers, gifts, and toys to thousands of underserved children across California’s Bay Area.
Their financial contribution thus far is at approximately $1,415,000.
In addition to their philanthropic giving, Siavash and Samaneh Tahbazof have dedicated hundreds of volunteer hours to the organization since 2015. Their personal commitment has strengthened not only our programs, but also our team and culture.
Join Us in Making a Difference
Your continued investment is not only transforming infrastructure—it is shaping futures by changing the trajectory of the lives of children and youth in need. Every child walking through newly built school doors, every orphan nurtured in a safe and loving home, every young girl given the chance to learn and grow, and every child with autism finally welcomed into a space built just for them—all are a direct result of your generosity. You are not only creating educational spaces, but strengthening systems of care, protection, and empowerment for the most vulnerable. We are deeply honored to walk this journey of impact with you.
