ASA’s Development Program Sets Another Record
Amanda Malloy, ASA Director of Development
In 2015, ASA members came together to set another fundraising record. The ASA received more than $115,000 from ASA members and other individuals and approximately $26,500 in corporate matching gifts and other support for a total of nearly $142,000.
Additionally, John Bartko gave more than $25,000 to establish the John J. Bartko Scholarship, which will provide travel assistance to a promising young statistician to attend the Conference on Statistical Practice (CSP). The $1,000 scholarship will be awarded annually and has already helped a young statistician attend this year’s CSP in San Diego.
The ASA’s new development program, which kicked off last year, has as its purpose not only to raise money to fund important programs and initiatives, but also to communicate more broadly to members what the ASA does, the impact the organization has, and why financial support is so important. A monthly series of “GiveASA” emails highlighted a specific area: advocacy, professional development, statistics education, and public statistical literacy.
In September, the generosity and leadership of 17 of the association’s past presidents led to the ASA’s first Presidents’ Matching Campaign. The past presidents pledged to match up to $26,800 in member contributions, and in just under two months, this goal was accomplished. The campaign raised a total of $53,600.
In 2016, the ASA will continue to find new and innovative ways to communicate with members about ASA programs and the impact members can have through their financial support, which makes it possible for the ASA to remain the trusted voice of statisticians and promote the practice and profession of statistics.
