Thank you for visiting my fundraising page! Donating through this website is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to support my fundraising efforts.
I am an Iraqi pianist and composer who will graduate from Holy Cross College in Notre Dame in May 2012. I have been sponsored by The Iraqi Student Project for all four years of college. Now I am hoping to attend graduate school. I have been admitted to the prestigious Berklee College of Music in Boston (or their campus in Valencia, Spain) but scholarships will not cover the cost.
Most important, I believe that music has the power to build bridges across the world and lessen the distance between peoples of different cultures. It is the message I carry and the reason why I was born.
I have performed in solo and ensemble concerts across the US to benefit my fellow students in The Iraqi Student Project. I am pleased to share with you an invitation of my upcoming concerts:
+ I will perform with the Missouri Symphony Society at the world premiere of my original composition for piano and orchestra
