Our Founder
As my grandmother has always said, "People can take everything from you except what you carry in your heart and the knowledge you acquire throughout your life."
I grew up surrounded by strong, intelligent, and humble women. From an early age, I was taught that education is one of life's greatest privileges, and many of the opportunities I have received were made possible through the sacrifices my family made when they left Tehran to build a new life.
I will always be grateful for the values they passed on to me.
The Yaghoubi Foundation exists to create opportunities for women to thrive, for children to learn, and for communities to build a better future.
