The most important part of the mission of the Foundation is to support the operations of the New Jersey Institute for Italian and Italian American Heritage Studies, a not-for-profit entity that was created by the New Jersey State Legislature, under the auspices of the New Jersey Italian and Italian American Heritage Commission. Through this relationship, the Foundation:
Funds educational programs at the university level through the New Jersey school system and in the community;
Advances Italian and Italian American studies and language instruction in schools, communities and universities;
Encourages dissemination of positive media images regarding Italian Americans; and
Assists in coordinating the statewide activities and public events of the Italian American organizations in New Jersey.

The Max Kade Institute (MKI) at the University of Wisconsin-Madison is part of the College of Letters and Science and governed by an Executive Committee, and with critical support from an active and growing Friends organization. The Institute has an administrative staff which includes a Director, Assistant Director, Librarian, clerical staff and numerous graduate and undergraduate students as well as volunteer help.
Our Institute is named after Dr. h.c. Max Kade (1882-1967). After emigrating from Schw�bisch Hall, Germany to New York City in 1905, he became successful and well known in the pharmaceutical industry. Dr. Kade established a foundation in New York to promote scientific and technical progress and to further the peaceful coexistence of nations. He was also committed to advancing German-American relations. The initial grant to found our Max Kade Institute was made by the President of the Max Kade Foundation of New York, the late Dr. Erich Markel, in 1983.
The Institute's mission is twofold: first, scholarly research and documentation; and second, outreach to a broader audience. Ongoing research involves faculty and students from many departments (as well as visiting scholars) examining how German-speaking immigrants and their descendants have both shaped their North American environment and been shaped by it. Outreach efforts center on bringing a better understanding of issues of German-American immigration, history, culture, and language to a general public as well as to school children.
