The 100,000 Strong Foundation is a nonprofit organization launched in 2013 to strengthen US-China relations through Mandarin language learning and study abroad. The Foundation leads a national movement to ensure the next generation of US leaders is equipped to engage effectively with China, a global strategic power, the second largest economy in the world, and America’s fastest growing trade partner. Backed by high-level support from both Washington and Beijing, US governors and members of Congress, and American and Chinese business leaders, the Foundation is committed to dramatically increasing the number and diversity of young Americans learning Mandarin and gaining meaningful experience in US-China relations.
