Help secure CASA's future today

Since 1967, students and professionals alike have had the opportunity to participate in this prestigious, one of a kind program that provides Arabic language training. We need your help to continue to preserve CASA's legacy for future participants to enjoy.

Many of CASA’s 1,900+ alumni have defined U.S.-Middle East relations for the last half-century through their careers in a wide range of fields (education, diplomacy, journalism, international development, and beyond) that work to foster intercultural understanding of the Arab world. Considering the ongoing importance of the region, the world needs fluent cultural ambassadors more than ever.

That's why a fundraiser to support the preeminent Center for Arabic Study Abroad (CASA) is so vital. The program’s annual grants from the U.S. Department of Education do not cover any stateside expenses involved in administering the program. Your support will be utilized to sustain the high quality of training and the program's competitive edge for our Fellows. You can make a difference by giving to CASA and helping others do the same. Give today!

In addition, we are asking a those who can to rally their friends, family, and networks to support our work. By becoming a fundraiser for Center for Arabic Study Abroad (CASA), you will help future CASA Fellows, and you'll help your friends feel good about doing good.

Starting a fundraiser is easy to do using the button above, and it's fun. We'll even give you all the tools you'll need to make a difference. (You can also share the link to this page if you don't want to create your own campaign page.) With your help we can ensure the program will thrive long into the future.
