Terms of service
Last updated October 15, 2026
These terms govern your use of scholarsofamerica.org, operated by TRAVELING SCHOLARS OF AMERICA Inc. (“Traveling Scholars of America”, “we”, “us”), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. By using the website, you agree to them.
About the website
This website describes our work and lets masajid request a visit from a scholar, contact us and donate. Information about our scholars, visits and partner charities is provided in good faith and may change without notice.
Requesting a scholar
Submitting a booking request or message does not confirm a visit. A visit is confirmed only when we agree its date, scholar and details with you directly. Each visit carries an honorarium plus travel costs, which we share before confirming. Either side may need to reschedule or cancel; we will give as much notice as we can.
Donations
Donations are made through Givebutter and are subject to Givebutter’s terms. Donations support the travel of scholars and our charitable mission, and are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law (Tax ID 42-4755519). Unless required by law or agreed in writing, donations are non-refundable; if you believe a donation was made in error, contact us at info@scholarsofamerica.org.
Appeals for partner charities
When a scholar makes an appeal on behalf of a partner charity, gifts given to that charity are received and governed by that charity, not by Traveling Scholars of America.
