Mahmoudi Foundation

The Mahmoudi Foundation is a nonprofit corporation established by the children of Houshang and Zhinus Mahmoudi to honor the lives and service of Zhinus, Houshang, and Shiva Mahmoudi. Guided by the principles of justice, unity, and the oneness of humankind, it seeks to foster positive societal impact and help build a more equitable, connected global community. The foundation supports education through scholarships and invites people to contribute through donations, volunteering, and awareness-building.

Its website shares news about foundation activities, including cultural events and media features, alongside stories and resources about the Mahmoudis’ lives and contributions. Visitors can explore an expanding archive of historic documents and audiovisual materials created by or concerning the family. The foundation also highlights Zarin, a fictional short film by filmmaker Nima Nourani that explores justice, forgiveness, and the relationship between past and present.

Through these educational, cultural, and community-focused efforts, the Mahmoudi Foundation works to preserve a legacy of service while encouraging others to advance unity and equality
