Italian Study Group

OUR HISTORY
The Italian Study Group of Troy (ISGT); a non-profit organization dedicated to the promotion and preservation of the Italian American heritage through language and culture. The ISGT, founded by the late Luella Baron, has been in existence for over 25 years. We are members of the Troy Chamber of Commerce and offer our support to local organizations. The ISGT is open to all regardless of age, nationality or religious preference.

FUNDRAISING
The monies raised by the Italian Study Group of Troy in its fundraising efforts are used to support classes in the Italian Language, choral singing and our Special Performing Arts Club. These classes are offered to the public at a bare minimum and are subsidized by the ISGT. The Wayne State University Language Department accredits our language instructors.

EDUCATION
In 1997, we initiated The Luella Baron Scholarship Fund, offered to students who are interested in the study of Italian culture and language, also accomplished by our fund-raising efforts.

ALSO...The Italian Study Group of Troy in liaison with the Italian Consulate of Detroit and other groups is at the forefront of an initiative to introduce the study of the Italian language in our high schools and public school programs.
