Athena Study Abroad launched its First Annual Athena “Global Give” Charity Fundraiser at NAFSA in Denver, Colorado, in 2016. Through generous donations from supporters throughout the field of international education as well as Athena’s dollar-for-dollar donation match, we were able to donate enough to the GoAbroad Foundation to result in the creation of a new annual GoAbroad Annual Scholarship that each year, supports a student in the Philippines to attend college for an entire academic year.

We are thrilled to share updates on our scholarship awardees!

NAFSA can be a bit hectic and overwhelming, like driving in Italy, but in both places the chaos is worth it for all the wonderful people, great food, and historic culture. It was such a pleasure to meet old parters, make new friends, and most importantly, host our 3rd Annual Global Give Fundraiser benefitting one of Athena’s S.O.S. Charity Recipients – the GoAbroad Foundation.
