When you donate to Central Asia Institute, your gift builds schools, pays for supplies, funds scholarships, and trains teachers in Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Tajikistan.
Big or small, every donation counts. And every child in Central Asia deserves the right to an education.
CAI’s monthly sustainers automatically become members of our Base Camp Society.
One of the most impactful ways to make a difference is through a monthly giving commitment. Your donation helps to strengthen and sustain the day-to-day work of CAI enabling us to both plan for the future and react in real-time to circumstances that could impede the delivery of educational opportunities for the communities we serve.
Mountaineers always seek the next challenge, often climbing technically difficult rock faces that require stamina and determination. Just like CAI’s donors, they are guided by the strength of their mission.

A donor advised fund is a type of giving program administered by a third-party sponsoring organization (e.g., the Fidelity Charitable Gift Fund, the Goldman Sachs Philanthropy Fund, and the Schwab Charitable Fund) that allows you to combine the most favorable tax benefits with the flexibility to support your favorite charities. Created for managing charitable donations on behalf of an organization, family, or individual, DAFs are an excellent way to both simplify your charitable giving and facilitate your strategic philanthropic goals.
Donors can make gifts of cash, stock, and other assets to the DAF. The donor receives an immediate tax deduction when the contribution is made. However, distributions from the DAF are not required immediately. Donors may take time to research and select grants of specified amounts to the charities of their choice before advising their DAF administrator to make a gift.
You can also choose to have any remaining DAF funds distributed to CAI after your lifetime by naming CAI as a beneficiary of all or a portion of remaining funds.

“I am moved by the work of the Central Asia Institute and love contributing [to educating] girls in the remotest areas. I have a passion for learning and want to give these girls an opportunity to indulge in that passion. How many lights can we spark? Opportunity will make that happen. Thank you for all you do.” – Lindy, donor since 2009
