President Ravi Bhooplapur is pleased to announce that the Xavier Foundation has received a generous $1 million donation from the Sharifi Family Foundation marking the second-largest gift in our history.
Drs. Bobak and Sasha Sharifi, proud alumni of Xavier University School of Medicine, have gone on to become accomplished physicians in nephrology and cardiology, respectively. During their recent visit to Aruba for the Global Alumni Meet, they expressed deep gratitude for the quality education and unwavering support they received from Xavier’s dedicated faculty throughout their entire medical journey. Inspired by the progress of our new academic campus under construction, they pledged their support with a transformational $1 million gift.
In recognition of this tremendous generosity, the library at the new academic campus will be named The Sharifi Health Sciences Library.
This gift is a strong start to our newly launched Capital Campaign, with a goal to raise $20 million over the next five years to support academic facilities, scholarships, and strategic growth. We are proud to share that nearly $5 million has already been raised to date.

Dr. Sumit Seth, Ambassador of India to the Republic of Panama, Costa Rica, and Nicaragua, paid a two-day visit to Xavier University School of Medicine (XUSOM) in Oranjestad, Aruba, on June 25 and 26, 2025.

In a special segment of the visit, Dr. Seth recognized and felicitated outstanding Indian community members in Aruba, particularly those with achievements in sports. He also introduced scholarship opportunities offered by the Government of India to international students, encouraging exploration of India`s academic and cultural landscape for mutual growth and development.
