You can donate to Central Asia Institute in a currency other than U.S. dollars by making an online credit card contribution. The credit card company will automatically convert your gift to U.S. dollars. You may also send us a check in other currencies, however, our bank charges significant fees to convert your gift to U.S. dollars. PLEASE NOTE: Central Asia Institute is a U.S. 501(c)3 non-profit organization and we are only registered in the U.S. A donation made outside the U.S. is NOT tax deductible.
At this time, we do not accept material goods. There is no reliable postal system in the regions we serve. Transport of material donations – after packing, taxes, customs, shipping by jeep, donkey and porter – is very expensive. We choose instead to support and thereby stimulate the local economy by purchasing the necessary school and building supplies within the region. However, occasionally Central Asia Institute accepts in-kind services.
For more information please contact us at info@centralasiainstitute.org.

Central Asia Institute cannot take the responsibility for individuals who wish to visit CAI-supported projects. Should you consider traveling to Afghanistan, Pakistan, or Tajikistan on your own as a tourist, please refer to Travel Warnings issued by the US State Department.
You may choose to donate to our “School Building” fund. This fund supports construction projects in the region where we work, including school construction and repairs. To discuss other sponsorship opportunities, email info@centralasiainstitute.org or call us at 406.585.7841.
Due to limited staff capacity, Central Asia Institute does not allow donors to sponsor specific teachers or students. To support teachers or students, please consider making a donation to fund teachers’ salaries & training or scholarships.

While we are inspired by the efforts of others to promote education in Central Asia, Central Asia Institute unfortunately has a limited capacity to partner with other organizations. If you are interested in sponsorship opportunities, please contact us at info@centralasiainstitute.org.
We appreciate your desire to communicate with students and beneficiaries in Central Asia. However, Central Asia Institute has a very small staff and it is difficult for us to facilitate correspondence between our supporters and beneficiaries.
Please refer to our Ways to Help page for various ways to support Central Asia Institute’s mission.
Thank you for your interest in volunteering. Unfortunately, at this time, we do not accept volunteers.
