FY25 HONOR ROLL OF DONORS

Âé¶¹Ö±²¥ ANNUAL MEETING

Thank You Fiscal Year 2025 Donors

We did it (once again)!

This fiscal year (July 1, 2024–June 30, 2025) was a resounding success for Âé¶¹Ö±²¥. The reason? You, our members and donors!

While participation has always been high with Âé¶¹Ö±²¥ members, the percentage of members who have donated $5 or more above their membership dues sharply increased during the past two years. This is in part thanks to a new membership module that makes it easier to include a “add-on” gift or credit card fee contribution when making any Âé¶¹Ö±²¥ purchase. Because membership dues and subscription fees account for only about 25% of Âé¶¹Ö±²¥’s annual revenue, these additional gifts are transformative.

This year, a record 924 people made a gift of $5 or more! Another 211 people made a gift of less than $5 (primarily donations to help with credit card fees), making for a total of 1135 donors. Moreover, the total of all donations in FY 2025 was more than $500,000. Please click on the FY 2025 Honor Roll of Donors to see a list of people who gave at all levels. We are in the process of updating the Lifetime Honor Roll of Donors, so please check it now (and next month) to see the amazing list of lifetime supporters. We are updating and checking these lists, so please contact us with any corrections or comments (info@asor.org).

Donor Participation Since 2016

  • Number of Donors

Why does high donor participation matter?

Nearly half of Âé¶¹Ö±²¥â€™s membership contributed this year—an achievement that sets Âé¶¹Ö±²¥ apart from nearly every other learned society. Moreover, the high level of donor participation from our membership is viewed positively by foundations and major donors outside Âé¶¹Ö±²¥ and helps Âé¶¹Ö±²¥ attract 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. Every contribution, no matter the size, helps sustain our work. Thank you again for your support. Truly, every donor is important, and every gift is meaningful.
