CIEE is pleased to announce the establishment of the Ping Matching Grants. These charitable grants, funded through a small endowment, are named after Dr. Charles Ping, a former Chairman of the CIEE Board of Directors.
The purpose of the Ping Grants is two-fold. First, Ping Grants are designed to allow local companies or organizations to carry out new activities which will benefit their local communities. Second, Ping Grants are designed to allow CIEE, through its students, to give something back to the communities in which they study. Our students gain valuable knowledge, skills, and insight through studying outside the U.S., and those students will give back, in meaningful ways, at sites located near a CIEE Study Center.
Applications are received by CIEE Resident Staff around the world who work with local organizations to help better their community.
