Cyra Khourdepaz

As Vice President of Philanthropy, Cyra plans and leads philanthropic initiatives that connect the W. P. Carey community with student organizations, campus partners, and local nonprofits. She develops fundraising and awareness campaigns, builds community partnerships, and coordinates with club leaders to make giving back a meaningful part of student life.

Outside of BSC, Cyra serves as Head of Internal Finance for the Arizona Microcredit Initiative.

Cyra joined BSC during her first semester at W. P. Carey and immediately found a community she could call home. Since then, she has grown from a general member to Internal Director of Philanthropy and now serves as Vice President of Philanthropy. Her favorite part of BSC is the community and the people who continue to inspire her every semester. She shares, "I have learned something valuable from every single member, and I continue to learn more with each semester. It is an uplifting community that pushes me to grow, both personally and professionally, and it has given me lifelong friends."
