Supporting Research and Education in Cambridge, Boston, and Beyond
Where applicable, our US entity can accept and manage gifts and grants for Harvard-affiliated research and activities.
Enabling Harvard's Research, Collaborations, and Education
In 2012, the President and Fellows of Harvard College established Harvard Global Research and Support Services, Inc.—a tax-exempt nonprofit corporation also known as Harvard Global or HG—to provide common operational and administrative infrastructure and back-office support for Harvard's international projects and activities.
Although our principal entity is in Cambridge, Massachusetts, most of our operations and services take place abroad, where we've established several country-specific entities, registrations, or memorandums of understanding. These entities and agreements enable us to employ staff, run offices, accept gifts, and manage research funds on behalf of Harvard-affiliated projects.

Friends of Harvard Hong Kong Trust
Our US entity can receive gifts from Hong Kong donors and use the funds in the US to further Harvard University's education and research activities in Cambridge and Boston. Established in 2015, our Hong Kong trust enables corporations and individual donors with Hong Kong taxable incomes to support the University's research and educational activities.
