27 Donors Away from Achieving our Goal!
In early May, ASOR Development Chair Ed Wright announced in a letter to ASOR members that the ASOR Board had made a $33,000 Challenge Gift. Board members collectively pledged to contribute $33,000 to the ASOR Annual Fund if we could recruit 100 new donors who had not yet made a gift this fiscal year (July 1, 2016 - June 30, 2017).

We are thankful to all of these Friends of ASOR for funding this new fellowship. Throughout the summer, Cecelia will update us on how her first dig is going. Read more ...
