The Alavi Foundation has issued a $25,000 grant to the American Museum of Natural History. The contribution was intended to support the upcoming exhibition on the Silk Road. President Ahmadi expressed his delight that the Alavi Foundation was able to make a contribution toward this project and that it would undoubtedly inform the public of the historical significance of the peoples and cultures along this historical trade route, including the middle east.
