A community built on opportunity, mentorship, and service.

Why we exist.

Nazareth empowers promising students through scholarships, mentorship, and educational support, helping them pursue their goals and create positive change in their communities.

Where we are going.

A future where every talented and motivated student has the opportunity, guidance, and support to reach their full potential.

Pay it forward.

Nazareth encourages scholarship recipients to become mentors, sharing their knowledge, experience, and encouragement with younger students in areas they are passionate about.

One student, many futures.

Education can transform individuals, families, and communities. We believe that supporting one student today can inspire many more tomorrow.

Education

We believe education is the most powerful force for change in a person's life and in a community.

Opportunity

Talent and potential must not be limited by financial circumstances or lack of access to guidance.

Integrity

We operate with transparency, accountability, and deep respect for our scholars, mentors, and donors.

Mentorship

Every person who rises has the responsibility to reach back and help the next person rise.

Leadership

We develop scholars into confident, compassionate leaders who serve their communities.

Community

Nazareth is not a transaction -- it is a growing family of scholars, mentors, and supporters.

Temesgen Sinamo

Founder, Nazareth Scholarship & Mentorship Program

I was born and raised in Ethiopia, where I saw both the power of education and the challenges young people face when access to opportunity is limited. My own journey through education and eventually to the United States showed me how transformative the right opportunity can be.

I started Nazareth with a simple belief: talent and potential should not be limited by financial circumstances or lack of access to guidance. Nazareth exists to support talented and hardworking Ethiopian students through scholarships, mentorship, and a community that encourages them to reach their full potential.

But our vision goes beyond providing financial support. We want to build a growing community of scholars and mentors who learn from one another, create meaningful impact, and eventually give back by opening doors for the next generation.

Nazareth is about creating opportunity, developing potential, and building a generation of young people who will positively impact Ethiopia and beyond.
