INSPIRED LEADERSHIP.
COMPASSIONATE SERVICE.
GLOBAL CITIZENSHIP.
Your philanthropic support makes a huge difference in the lives of our students - the difference that can transform them into next generation leaders.
Parami University will teach, nourish, and challenge young people with diverse socioeconomic backgrounds, including youth from developing countries and marginalized communities, so that they are equipped to shape a new narrative in their respective communities, societies and globally: a narrative that moves on from stagnation, and status quo to progress and prosperity, to humanity and hope.
Why Give?
Parami University Annual Fundraising Drive 2024
We are aiming to raise $25,000 before the year ends to urgently fill the fundraising gap so that we can provide more need-based assistance to students. Your donation makes a BIG difference. With just $25, you can provide support for learning resources, scholarships, and programs that give students who might otherwise not have an opportunity to pursue higher education.
A donation of $25 provides a student with one-year access to electronic databases, including library resources, subscriptions, and one million digital textbooks.
A donation of $100 enables one student to design and implement a project in a university student club.
A donation of $500 pays for one student’s annual experiential learning, study trips, and community engagement activities in Myanmar.
A donation of $1,000 supports one student's accommodation in a learning hub (dormitory) equipped with housing amenities and internet and learning facilities per year.
A donation of $5,000 allows one student to participate in an in-person 10-week summer internship in Washington DC, United States.
Our mission is to educate underserved students in developing countries so that they will become effective change agents and contributing members of the global community. Join us and change lives with the gift of education.
Make a Gift of Education
Innovative programming and a dedication to improving accessibility define our approach to education in crisis regions. Your donation can help amplify the transformative power of education to better individual lives and communities in Burma and the global south.
Your Impact
Quality Higher Education
International education is not accessible to many students in the global south due to national boundaries, immobility, financial constraints, and access requirements. We at Parami make globally recognized liberal arts education accessible to youth from diverse communities, particularly from displaced, migrant, and refugee communities, by administering a flexible admission system, strong local partnerships and generous need-based financial aid.
Our licensing with the Higher Education Licensure Commission (HELC) in Washington D.C. and dual-degree partnership with Bard College, US, ensure that Parami graduates receive quality higher education and globally competitive degrees to help them advance their career goals.
Scholarships support students such as Kyi Lae Lae Moe who is a migrant student in a town on the Thai-Burma border. Students from migrant communities face significant challenges in pursuing higher education due to structural barriers in conventional university admissions - such as legal documentation, education credentials, financial needs, and family obligations. We tailor our admissions system to minimize these structural barriers and enable students like Kyi to access high-quality, recognized higher education.
“Receiving a full scholarship from Parami University holds a great significance for me. It enables me to pursue my education in spite of financial difficulties. Additionally, I don't have to navigate the complex paperwork for admissions and financial aid, which is a significant relief for me because it can be risky as a migrant student to secure necessary legal documents.”
- Kyi Lae Lae Moe, Class of 2027
