Your Support Shapes a Shared Future

In the 21st Century, two nations will play pivotal roles in shaping a global future: China and the U.S. When you make a gift to support the 21st Century China Center at GPS, you help influence this future as well.

Your gift will:

  • Advance research on contemporary China

  • Forge partnerships and foster collaboration

  • Prepare the next generation of experts

  • Connect communities in China and the U.S.

Your gifts help build a world-class center of research and engagement where timely and in-depth analysis is used to address critical policy issues. The center is where renowned scholars and leaders from both countries come together to find solutions to practical and diplomatic challenges as well as explore exciting opportunities for cooperation.

For information on making a gift to the center, please contact the center director Lei Guang. Thank you.
