Hungary Foundation

Hungary Foundation is a Washington, DC-based educational and cultural nonprofit organization dedicated to strengthening understanding and cooperation between Hungary and the United States. Founded in 2013, the Foundation operates as a 501(c)(3) charitable organization that invests in talent through life-changing educational experiences, professional development opportunities, and strategic cultural initiatives.

The organization delivers comprehensive programs across multiple focus areas. Hungary Foundation offers the highest quality, value-driven educational experiences in partnership with well-connected U.S. academic institutions, including graduate fellowships and scholarship programs for both Hungarian and American participants. The Foundation administers two-way professional fellowship and internship programs that provide ideas-based professional advancement opportunities in strategically important sectors, connecting Hungarians with opportunities in the United States and Americans with placements in Hungary.

Additionally, Hungary Foundation manages dynamic digital diaspora engagement initiatives, including a mobile application designed to make Hungarian points of interest across the United States accessible and visible to Hungarians, Americans, and Hungarian Americans alike. The Foundation supports Hungarian-American organizations and programs that strengthen interaction and cooperation between Hungarian and American citizens and institutions, with particular emphasis on cultural, educational, and scholarly activities. Governed by an independent Board of Trustees comprised of accomplished public figures and business leaders, Hungary Foundation maintains strict nonpartisan and apolitical standards, focusing exclusively on charitable mission advancement rather than political engagement.
