United States, 2nd Apr 2026 – Morad Shaker, a philanthropist and founder of Shaker International Scholarship Programs (SISP), has announced the expansion of his poverty reduction initiative beyond Bangladesh into a broader international framework under the name Shaker Global Poverty Reduction.
Shaker International Scholarship Programs (SISP) is a private, nonprofit organization based in Wyoming, United States, founded and funded by Morad Shaker, and operating from Honolulu, Hawaii. The organization focuses on providing financial assistance and educational support to underserved communities, particularly students and vulnerable populations.
This announcement reflects a transition from a country-focused initiative to a structured international model designed for phased implementation across multiple regions.
The organization confirmed that this next step is scheduled to begin on April 8, 2026, when selected participants will begin registering through the initial system. The date marks a key milestone in the development of the initiative and in the realization of philanthropist Morad Shaker’s long-standing vision.
Organizational Background and Development
The initiative originated through a program known as Operation Bangladesh, which was developed to identify individuals in need within Bangladesh and establish structured pathways for support.
During this phase, the organization assessed community-level conditions and identified key areas of need. These early efforts contributed to the development of a more structured operational model intended for long-term scalability.
According to the organization, Operation Bangladesh will remain part of the initiative’s foundation and historical development, while the broader framework transitions into an international structure.
Scope of the Expanded Initiative
The expanded initiative is designed to support individuals and families experiencing economic hardship through structured assistance systems.
Priority support categories include:
- Single mothers facing financial hardship
- Orphaned children without stable support systems
- Elderly individuals without support
- Persons with disabilities
- Students from low-income backgrounds
- Families in underserved or economically challenged communities
These categories were identified based on observed needs during earlier program development and are intended to guide implementation as the initiative expands.
The organization indicated that the broader framework is structured to support both individual-level assistance and community-level development through organized systems.
Transition to a Global Framework
The expansion reflects a shift from a localized initiative to a broader international approach.
According to Morad Shaker, the transition is intended to support the development of a scalable system capable of operating across multiple regions while maintaining consistency in structure and delivery.
Operation Bangladesh will continue to be referenced as the origin of the initiative, while implementation expands under the broader international framework.
Introduction of a Structured Registry System
As part of this transition, the organization has introduced a limited-access registry system.
This registry is designed as an initial step prior to the launch of a larger, integrated platform currently under development. The upcoming platform is intended to serve as a centralized system where individuals can formally register and participate in the program.
The registry system will be implemented in phases, beginning with a small group of initial participants and expanding gradually over time.
According to the organization, the purpose of the registry system is to:
- Support early-stage system organization
- Facilitate participant identification and verification
- Enable controlled onboarding prior to full platform deployment
- Allow for testing and refinement of internal processes
The organization stated that the registry is a preparatory stage and not the final operational platform.
Operational Approach and Implementation Strategy
The initiative is expected to expand through a phased approach aligned with system readiness and operational capacity.
The implementation strategy includes:
- Gradual regional expansion
- Structured onboarding processes
- Development of internal coordination systems
- Alignment with local conditions and community needs
The organization indicated that the initiative is being developed with a long-term perspective, emphasizing system stability and scalability.
Organizational Continuity
Shaker International Scholarship Programs (SISP) will continue to serve as the organizational foundation for the initiative.
Its prior work in providing financial assistance and educational support is expected to support the development and implementation of the expanded framework.
According to the organization, the expansion represents a continuation and structural evolution of its existing efforts under the leadership of Morad Shaker, a philanthropist.
