Our Vision.
Wellness and Opportunity for Students and Families
Our focus is on helping vulnerable students with resources to overcome food insecurity while seeking educational opportunities beyond high school. We support students, along with their families, who are part of under-resourced communities, who have nevertheless in light of their real-life circumstances demonstrated achievement in school, and who with a helping hand would be enabled to overcome finite family resources as they pursue further education and life beyond. We are inspired by our own having received support from others during our own varied challenged upbringings and envision a growing movement led by these young people who will choose to help others who come along behind them in life.
Our Mission.
The Ammar B. Mufleh Foundation, under the leadership of its founder, is pursuing the mission of identifying students who would benefit from improved personal and family food security and support them while they pursue further educational opportunities so as to prepare themselves for making their own contributions to life and society here in the USA and beyond.
We pursue this mission through our commitment to:
Changing Food Insecurity – We are aligning our resources so as to support existing food banks and meal programs that help children, youth, and their families gain access to healthy meals.
Changing Tech Access – We are working with educators in order to understand the needs of students who are dedicated to their education, but are challenged through a lack of resources. We are providing funding support to these untapped communities of students that will allow for the purchase of tech hardware, including providing IT resource scholarships, in the form of laptops, to graduating seniors pursuing higher education.
Paying It Forward – Building upon Founder Mufleh’s own life experiences, we are inspired to support university students seeking to engage in graduate studies. The one request of grant recipients is that once they achieve success in life, they in turn will assist others in attaining access to graduate education.
Growing of Partnerships and Resources – We are seeking to identify others who share our values and interests, and who would be open to reciprocity in sharing resources so that our mutual visions and missions may be realized.
We have benefitted individually from the support of others along our pathways of life, enabling us to become who we are, and we now wish to do the same for others who are coming along the road of life behind us.

Changing Tech Access
We are working with educators in order to understand the needs of students who would like to further their education, but are challenged through lack of resources. We are providing funding support that will allow for the purchase of tablets with internal WIFI capacity, and will consider supporting other “tech” needs that may exist and hinder the educational advancement of the student.
