Make a Difference

Through increased programming, your donation helps create real, measurable change in the lives of the next generation of citizen diplomats.

  • Newly Returned Programming - Quarterly community meetings with a trained facilitator to work through the tensions of re-integration into High School and/family.

  • Career Portal - CBYX AA is piloting a career portal connecting alumni to organizations interested in hiring CBYX Alumni - or maybe that’s you and would prefer a steady inflow of vetted alumni to interview!

  • Alumni Stories - Our alumni do incredible things - learn how to raise a bi-lingual child while living in your home country or how to immigrate to Germany, or what’s it like to lead cyber intelligence at Google, or life as an intelligence officer working at Teufelsberg during the Cold War.

Be Part of the Solution

Strangers gave us incredibile things, and now we have an opportunity to give back with our expertise, helpful programming, career opportunities, connections, and events that strengthen our engagement. The CBYX experience doesn’t have to abruptly end with a homecoming.

Inspire Others

Your generosity can motivate friends, family, and colleagues to do the same.

THE MORE YOU KNOW…

"The CBYX program gave us a t-shirt that said something along the lines of ‘The world doesn’t change, We change.’ and I think that is EMBLEMATIC of the experience as a whole. It definitely changes you on a personal level.”
