Support the Centennial Fund

AAR Centennial Fund

As the AAR turns 100 we introduce the Centennial Fund, a special edition of the Academy Fund.  The Centennial Fund will be supported by donations which are received during the AAR’s Centennial Celebration, from August 1, 2009 – December 31, 2010.  Donors can choose to have their gift support the General Centennial Fund or can designate their gift toward the International Dissertation Research Fellowships. 

The General Centennial Fund will provide operational and program support to the AAR, including individual and collaborative research grants and exciting new technological enhancements and networking opportunities that will benefit members. 

The International Dissertation Research Fellowships is a new program that will provide a much needed resource to our junior scholars by providing funding to perform dissertation research outside their home country.  

We suggest any new donor consider a minimum initial gift of $100 to commemorate our 100 years.  In an effort to enable more support for the Centennial Fund, we have introduced recurring giving, which allows you to make payments on a credit card, on a schedule of your choice.  Donors can also make a pledge to support the Centennial Fund.  To ensure your pledge is credited toward the Centennial Fund, pledges must be completed by December 31, 2010.  Each gift makes a difference. 

As the AAR begins to celebrate its second century and as the Centennial Fund kicks off, we thank you for your generosity and ask you for your continued support.  

Honor someone with a gift to the AAR

Gifts in Honor
