Grant Program Recommendation Form

The Abraham Path Initiative (API) is a partner-focused, catalytic, non-governmental organization based in the United States that raises funds for grantees and partners who will implement projects along walking trails and with local communities in the Middle East. Our work is inspired by the travels of the legendary Abraham (Ibrahim in Arabic and Turkish, Braham in Kurdish), who is believed to have walked through Mesopotamia and the Eastern Mediterranean, sharing hospitality and showing kindness to strangers. 

API is issuing a call for original project ideas that amplify our mission in creative ways. Through their work, grant recipients will shed light on the people, cultures, and extraordinary hospitality of the region, in ways that are seldom seen in mainstream media and bus-friendly tours. The goal of the Grants Program is to encourage projects that nurture economic growth, cross-cultural communication, and/or heritage preservation in the 

Middle East

. Grant recipients will deploy the Path in ways that engage new audiences with the Abraham Path Initiative, drawing attention to its mission and vision. 

Grants aimed to explore, promote, study, develop, and support the Path are encouraged and will be prioritized.
