Why Give This Giving Tuesday?

Without the Hungarian Cultural Association and the Napocska Hungarian School, many Hungarian families in Arizona would lose their most meaningful connection to their roots — their language, traditions, and community.

Our mission is to provide high-quality cultural and educational experiences that bring Hungary closer to home. From talented performers and educators visiting from Hungary and across the U.S. to children learning traditional songs, dances, and history — every program we offer strengthens the bonds of our heritage.

But these programs come at a cost — travel, lodging, venue rentals, and materials. While we apply for grants, they only cover a small fraction of our expenses. The rest comes from you — our generous community.

Your Giving Tuesday contribution helps us:
🎶 Bring authentic Hungarian artists and educators to Arizona
📚 Offer engaging, educational programs for all ages
🎉 Host community events that celebrate Hungarian culture
🏫 Keep our school thriving and accessible to local families

And if donating money isn’t possible, there are other ways to help!
We welcome volunteers and in-kind donations — whether you help at events, lend your professional skills, or donate needed items, your contribution matters deeply. By clicking on ‘Share our Work’ you can too create a Facebook fundraiser that would support our activities with each donation from people.

This Giving Tuesday, be part of building a lasting legacy for Hungarians in the American Southwest.
Together, we can guarantee our children grow up proud of who they are and where they come from.

How To Best Support HCAP

My family and I have attended two events hosted by the Hungarian Cultural Association, and we had a wonderful time at both of them. The food is amazing—authentic homemade meals and desserts. I also like how they offer activities for all ages to enjoy—crafts, dancing, archery and more. It is a great opportunity to learn more about Hungarian and European history and culture, as they share poetry, music, authentic clothing and traditional holiday celebrations. Everyone is very warm, friendly and welcoming (and it’s ok if you don’t speak Hungarian!). We look forward to their next event.
