ASOR ANNUAL MEETING

KERSHAW FAMILY TRUST MAKES $5,000 CHALLENGE GIFT

ASOR Met and Exceeded the Challenge with 351 Donors!

ASOR is pleased to announce that the Kershaw Family Trust has made a challenge gift of $5,000 to support News@ASOR during the 2014 Fiscal Year. In order to receive the gift, ASOR needed to meet a goal of 350 separate donors for Fiscal Year 2013 (July 1, 2012 – June 30, 2013). The Kershaw Trust has generously supported the operations of News@ASOR from January to June 2013, and we are grateful for their continued support of this e-newsletter for members.

We have exceeded our goal of 350 for Fiscal Year 2013! Not only that, but we have a new record for donor participation, exceeding last year’s record of 282 donors! As of June 30, we have 351 donors!

As Development Chair Rob Oden’s essay “Why All Gifts Matter,” makes clear, all gifts are important and meaningful. In this particular case, small gifts have multiplied to help ASOR qualify for $5,000 that will support our member e-newsletter.

You may make a gift by clicking on this link. You may also contribute by sending a check to ASOR at 656 Beacon Street, 5th Floor, Boston, MA 02215. Please e-mail ASOR if you have any questions or call us at 617-353-6570.
