Yahya Mhirsi collecte des fonds
Support married music students from Tunisia
We are Yahya Mhirsi and Fatma Souf, a married Tunisian couple studying Music at East Tennessee State University since January 2022. Our personal funds for the academic year 2022-2023 are very limited, so we started a project called Tennessee88.
Tennessee88 is an 88 concert tour project supported by the New York-based NGO 88 International, and it aims to:
1) Raise funds for our next academic year.
2) Share music and promote Tunisia in different concert settings in Tennessee.
Below is an estimated breakdown of our financial needs:
-International Health Insurance: $502 per person per semester ($2,008 in Total)
-Housing cost: $3,215 per semester ($6,430 in Total)
-Fatma's remaining tuition & fees: $2,997 per semester ($5,994 in Total)

*All donations are tax-deductible for donors who are US taxpayers.
For every $100 or more donation, we will compose and perform a piece based on the donor's first name as a way of saying thank you!
If you want to support us but can’t do so financially, please consider:
1) Helping us organize a free concert in Tennessee (churches, schools, hospitals, facilities, events etc.).
2) Sharing this campaign with your friends on social media.
Update: The video above [English subtitles available] was made in Tunisia when we were still engaged, and it doesn't provide enough information about our current situation:
•As international students, we are not authorized to work off-campus in the U.S.
•Our parents' income from Tunisia is very low because of the Tunisian dinar's falling currency exchange rate. We also have two siblings each, so we are trying to alleviate some of the financial burdens from our parents.
However, we highly recommend you to watch it if you are interested to know us better (our journey, musical background etc.)
