Diplomacy Matters - AFSA

Help diplomats at U.S. embassies overseas and stateside bring understanding to our sometimes dangerous world by striving to foster peace among foreign nations.  The U.S. Foreign Service IS America's first line of defense!

The Fund for American Diplomacy (FAD) supports a variety of public programs (see bottom of the page) to raise awareness on the importance of diplomacy and the U.S. Foreign Service. FAD activities also show how U.S. diplomacy helps America's national security and economic prosperity. Our programs are aimed not only at the Foreign Service but the general public, students, and business community.
