CHILD International, throughout its entire existence, has taken every action with a quest for justice, equality and fairness in society. This effort has always included a call to action against any system or belief which makes equality impossible. We stand firmly in these convictions, and grieve hand-in-hand with groups whose rights are systematically displaced and stand unequivocally and proudly with the unshakable conviction that Black Lives Matter. We hear you and stand with you.

Our mission has always rested on the notion that change begins with advocacy for the lives and opportunities of displaced or economically disenfranchised children and teens. Therefore, we are initiating a scholarship program in support of black lives, and in particular, in support of educational opportunities for teens and children.

The Faramarz Aslani Musical Scholarship Fund was established 2024 by CHILD International to honor the memory of our beloved legend, Faramarz Aslani, a long-time supporter of our mission.

This scholarship provides musical lessons for displaced and refugee children, offering a powerful and healing outlet for those who have experienced trauma. We invite anyone inspired by his legacy to contribute to this meaningful fund, ensuring his passion for music and compassion for children continues to make a difference.
