Shams Rouhani Memorial Endowment Fund Remembering a Passionate Educator

Shams Al Dhuha Rouhani was a midwife, and an educator. She was passionate about education and worked tirelessly on her own education and that of her siblings and her own children. As a midwife she served not only the deprived women of her hometown in late 1940’s but after suffering much religious persecution, she left for Dubai, and was embraced, respected and loved by the people in her new community.

As a tribute to her lifelong love for education and care for others, and remembering her grace, inspiration, compassion, and calm competence the Shams Al Dhuha Rouhani Memorial Scholarship Endowment Fund is created. Income from this endowment will benefit the children of ADCAM in Brazil, and marginalized young rural women at Barli Institute in India.
