Sustaining the American Enterprise
The American Enterprise Institute is dedicated to preserving and strengthening the foundations of American freedom--limited government, competitive private enterprise, strong cultural and political institutions, and vigilant defense--through rigorous research, debate, and writing. Founded in 1943, AEI is home to some of the nation's foremost economists, legal scholars, social scientists, and foreign policy specialists. The Institute's work is cited and reprinted in the national media more often than that of any other "think tank."
AEI is an independent, nonpartisan organization financed by contributions from foundations, individuals, and corporations. Its budget of more than $20 million is supported by annual donations and by endowment and campaign commitments--currently over $85 million and growing--devoted to research chairs, special programs, and long-term financial strength.
The American Enterprise Institute is a "public charity" under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, which means that donations to AEI receive maximum tax benefits. Donations may be in the form of cash, securities, bequests, or retirement assets. In addition, there are several established "planned giving" arrangements, suitable primarily for large donations, which permit donors to achieve personal and family financial goals, while providing substantial current or future support of AEI.
