Âé¶¹Ö±²¥ ANNUAL MEETING

Thank You FY 2024 Donors

Graph showing donor numbers for 2019 through 2024We did it (again)!

This fiscal year (July 1, 2023–June 30, 2024) was a record one for Âé¶¹Ö±²¥. Donor numbers have been steadily increasing over the past couple of years and this year 905 of Âé¶¹Ö±²¥ members chose to make a gift of $5 or more! In addition, another 407 people made a gift of less than $5 (primarily from donations to cover credit card fees). Even better news—the cash donations in FY 2024 totaled more than $1,600,000!

Thanks to you, our generous donors, for helping Âé¶¹Ö±²¥ carry out our mission. It is truly gratifying to see our members and friends choosing to invest in Âé¶¹Ö±²¥. Please review the long list of colleagues who donated to make Âé¶¹Ö±²¥â€™s work possible this fiscal year. We are still updating and checking this list, so please contact us with any corrections or comments (info@asor.org).

Benefactor ($20k+) = 6
Patron ($10,000–19,999) = 7
Friend ($5,000–9,999) = 13
Sponsor ($1,000–4,999) = 33
Sustainer ($500–999) = 28
Supporter ($250–499) = 27
Contributor ($100–249) = 180
Donor ($25–99.99) = 136
Ally ($5–24.99) = 475
Gifts under $5 = 407

Why does high donor participation matter?

This large number of donors (almost half of Âé¶¹Ö±²¥’s membership) is something that distinguishes Âé¶¹Ö±²¥ from all other learned societies. And it matters, as the high level of donor participation from our membership engages the attention of foundations and major donors outside Âé¶¹Ö±²¥ and helps us attract gifts and support from them.

Your donations also enable Âé¶¹Ö±²¥ to carry out our mission. Subscriptions and memberships only account for about a quarter of our annual budget, so we rely on grants and donations from our members and friends. Even modest gifts add up to create significant support for Âé¶¹Ö±²¥, Truly, every donor is important, and every gift is meaningful.
