Welcome To Our Foundation

The Albanian American Development Foundation ("AADF" or "the Foundation") was created in 2009 by the Albanian American Enterprise Fund ("AAEF" or "the Fund") with the support and encouragement of USAID and the United States Government.

The Foundation will assist in the development and growth of a vibrant private sector for the benefit of a free and democratic Albania. The Foundation will continue the Fund's mission to make a meaningful contribution to Albania's economic transition and progress. It will serve as an enduring symbol of U.S. commitment to Albania.

The AADF program will concentrate on four areas:

Education for Sustainable Development

Entrepreneurship

Leadership Development; and

Support for Cultural Tourism and Eco-Tourism.

The Foundation endowment will be funded by the gradual liquidation of AAEF investments. Foundation activities will be funded by the income from the endowment.

The Foundation is in its start-up phase and is not currently accepting any requests for funding.
