Welcome to the website of the Italian Language Foundation, which is dedicated to promoting and sustaining Italian language education in the United States and reinstating The College Board’s Advanced Placement (AP) program in Italian Language and Culture. Our officers and advisors include members of national educational organizations, all of whom have a deep-seated commitment to education and the language and culture of Italy.
Dear Supporter of AP Italian,
Throughout this difficult period following the discontinuation of the Advanced Placement Program in Italian Language and Culture, the Italian Language Foundation has been forging ahead with its advocacy efforts. We are pleased to report that the Columbus Citizens Foundation’s Board of Governors, members of which include Louis Tallarini, the ILF’s Chairman, has just pledged $500,000 towards the reinstatement of AP Italian. The Columbus Citizens Foundation is now the first Italian-American organization to offer an unrestricted donation for this worthy purpose.
The Italian Language Foundation is a not-for-profit 501 (c) (3) corporation qualified by the Internal Revenue Service to receive tax deductible contributions. Join us in learning about Italian language and culture studies.
