The Charity

  • The Quadrille Ball is part of the Germanistic Society of America, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization.
  • The charity awards scholarships to talented graduate and undergraduate students enrolled at U.S. and German universities. The stipends offer students the opportunity to study and conduct research across the Atlantic.
  • Scholarships recipients are chosen in cooperation with highly regarded organizations: the Fulbright program, the Institute of International Education (IIE), and Columbia University.
  • The Germanistic Society of America has supported close to 600 students.
  • The experience of living and studying in a foreign country has enriched those young people’s lives, and has helped bridge cultural differences and deepen international understanding.
  • All assets for the scholarship fund are raised through the annual Quadrille Ball.
  • The Quadrille is organized by volunteers to ensure that the tax-deductible contributions from sponsors, advertisers, donors, and ball guests benefit the stipend fund.
