Note: The absence of a rating does not indicate a positive or negative assessment; it only indicates that we have not yet evaluated this organization.

    Historical Ratings
    Charity Navigator's ratings previously did not consider Leadership & Adaptability, Culture & Community, or Impact & Measurement. The historic rating mainly reflects a version of today’s Accountability and Finance score. More information on our previous rating methodologies can be found on our rating methodology page.
    Rating histories are available for a growing number of rated organizations. Check back later to see if this organization has a rating history!

    During the past year we continued to meet virtually in order to advance the mission and objectives of our organization. We were able to resume our annual fundraising concert at Carnegie Hall, NYC which was well attended. We increased the number of virtual lectures and presentations through collaborations with other organizations. With the assistance of DAAD NYC we were able to strengthen our collaborations with the German Studies Association. We resumed in person scholarships for students applying for the Research Internships in Science and Engineering at German universities, with an emphasis on sustainability issues and the enviornment. We also supported language and culture Summer Courses at German Universities.
