Support the Francis H. Brown African Scholarship

“When someone is trying to climb a wall, sometimes they need a little boost.”

Francis H. Brown deeply believed that African scholars should have equal opportunities to research our shared history and contribute to the scientific body. The Francis H. Brown African Scholarship Fund represents his commitment to making this vision a reality.

Since awarding the first scholarship in 2019, eight awards totaling over $120,000 have been made from this fund.

Please help us build on the success of this program. Donate today to continue the legacy of Francis H. Brown while building a bright future for East African research.

100% of your gift will support the Francis H. Brown African Scholarship Fund.
