Organizations Filed Purposes: The Charlemagne Institute is an educational nonprofit organization leading a cultural movement to defend and advance Western Civilization.

Intellectual Takeout is a website and social media network that promotes rational discourse while rooting readers in the best of the Western Tradition. The site posts a daily series of intelligent, original articles related to the political, economic, and cultural underpinnings of American society through the philosophical lens of Western Civilization. Each year, Intellectual Takeout publishes approximately 1,300 articles, which are viewed by 10 million unique readers. Via social media, its content is viewed roughly 150 million times a year. In all its publications, including Intellectual Takeout, Charlemagne Institute draws a clear line between our editorial decisions and our donors and board members. While donors often direct where their financial support goes (such as to internship programs or public lectures), they do not interfere with the writing and publishing of our content.

The Alcuin Internship is an intensive, intellectual and professional training program for a group of elite college students and recent graduates. Hosted by Charlemagne Institute each summer, the Alcuin Internship deepens participants' understanding of the history of Western Civilization and the modern Conservative movement while preparing them for lives of work and service. The 10-week internship begins with a week-long "Intellectual Bootcamp," followed by weekly seminars with thought-leaders from around the country, discussing topics like virtue, the history of conservativism, the roots of the Western intellectual tradition, and Christianity's role in shaping the West. Additionally, the Alcuin Internship provides professional mentorship in writing for a diverse audience, business etiquette, networking, and growth opportunities in support of a national nonprofit.

Chronicles: A Magazine of American Culture has been a stronghold of intelligent, conservative discourse on Western and American culture since 1977. Through a website and monthly magazine, Chronicles examines and analyzes current events from the perspectives of history, theology, literature, and philosophy. Influencing the influential, over a third of its 7,000 subscribers hold advanced degrees. Its readership includes novelists, filmmakers, university professors, teachers, homeschooling mothers, captains of industry, government researchers, journalists, bishops, and politicians. Charlemagne Institute became the publisher of Chronicles on December 31, 2018 when the Rockford Institute, Chronicles original publisher, dissolved and all its assets were assumed by Charlemagne Institute. In all its publications, including Chronicles, Charlemagne Institute draws a clear line between our editorial decisions and our donors and board members. While donors often direct where their financial support goes (such as to internship programs or public lectures), they do not interfere with the writing and publishing of our content.
