The TAHIRIH ASSOCIATION is a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) membership organization administered by a Board of Directors and Advisors.
The TAHIRIH ASSOCIATION is dedicated to promoting the vision of Tahirih (Ta-hair-AY), who lived from 1815-1852. She was one of the earliest women in the struggle for human rights and equality. This legendary 19th century Persian poetess and legal scholar has become known as Joan of Arc of the Eastern world. Tahirih was a transformational leader who called for social and religious freedom at a time when she herself was not allowed such rights. Tahirih's courage, commitment to justice, and sacrifice remain an inspiration to all.
The TAHIRIH ASSOCIATION endeavors to empower and motivate individuals; promote equality of all people; fosters social well-being, harmony, world unity, and universal brotherhood; advances gender equality; and utilizes the arts to educate the public about Tahirih's mission. Contributions support a wide variety of educational programs with emphasis on art and science programs.
