German-American
Heritage Foundation International (GAHFI)
The
German-American Heritage Foundation International (GAHFI) was founded
in 1995 by the late Dr. Eugene C. Strobel to educate students about
the German-American experience and Michigan's business & trade connections
with Germany.
Under the leadership of Mrs. Marge Strobel Donofrio, GAHFI continues
the Foundation's important mission of building bridges between high
schools and universities, between academia and the business world, between
young and old, and between the various communities which make up the
diverse ethnic tapestry of southeastern Michigan.
GAHFI
annual events include a Cabaret Dinner in spring and its Oktoberfest
Twilight Cruise on the Detroit River in fall.
In
recognition of Dr. Strobel's passionate work to promote the study of
German and strengthen German-American partnerships, the Junior Year
in Munich (JYM) at Wayne State University has established a permanent
tribute in his honor: The Eugene C. Strobel
Memorial Scholarship Fund.
