Luys Foundation (Armenian: Լույս Հիմնադրամ) is a private foundation based in Armenia actively sponsoring education, scholarship and economic growth for Armenia by supporting full-time enrolled students across the globe with and for diaspora, Armenian youth.[1][2], where the foundation became embedded in Universities' eligible scholarships across the globe. [3] Luys Foundation's mission to support Armenian scholars in their education and career was considered "intellectual philanthropy".[4]
The foundation was supported, then ended in 2018, by former Armenian prime minister Serzh Azati Sargsyan. The foundation was founded in 2008, and started operating in 2009 and remained active for nearly a decade.[5]
The Luys foundation was originally tasked with developing Armenia by creating a stronger presence among the world's leading creative thinkers and innovators.[6] Its mission is threefold: Learn, Do, Co-Create. The first one aims at increasing the number of Armenian students at world's leading universities by providing financial support and mentoring to prospective students. The "Do" part uses the knowledge and connections of Luys scholars to develop Armenia. The "Co-Create" part mobilizes the youth to seek and find solutions to real-world problems through co-creation and innovative approaches.[7][8]
