Dear I-House Community,

Giving Tuesday is one of the biggest giving days of the year. Will you give today to I-House to support the development of empathetic leaders?

In a world that seems increasingly divided, cultural humility and empathy have emerged as fundamental attributes we urgently need to instill in our future leaders. Our world needs leaders who can work together to find solutions to the pressing, collective challenges we face across the globe today.

Please Make a gift today for a more peaceful tomorrow.

I believe, and I hope you do too, that the I-House experience has the power to broaden minds and create global citizens.  

That’s why I’m asking you to support I-House this Giving Tuesday. The I-House experience is truly transformational, and your gifts help make it possible.   

Your gifts help I-House open its doors to students from around the world–and from a variety of economic circumstances–providing the opportunity to live immersed in a vibrant cross-section of cultures, languages, and traditions.  

On this global day of giving, please help us cultivate engaged listeners, thinkers, and leaders by making a generous gift to I-House now. And, if you’ve recently sent a gift our way, thank you for your generosity!

Watch these short videos of I-House residents expressing their gratitude for the I-House experience:

With gratitude and hope for our shared future,

Executive Director and CEO
