Currently, the association has got a many as 300 members from Germany and the United States as well as from some other countries. Our members come from all of society: Politicians, scientists, employees and soldiers. This member structure is reflected in the selection of the board members of the German-American Association.

Our name and our logo

The official English name of our society is "German-American Association". In German, the name is "Deutsch-Amerikanische Gesellschaft". Until 1999 the name was "Gesellschaft zur Förderung der Deutsch-Amerikanischen Freundschaft" - "Association for the Promotion of German-American Friendship". Due to this, you sometimes will read of "GFDAF" or "APGAF".

Our logo was developed in 1999. It symbolizes both the banner of Germany as of the United States integrating each other.
