Board & Committee Meetings
Help cover the costs of bringing ASOR’s volunteer board and committee members together, ensuring the governance and oversight that keeps ASOR accountable and well-run.

Climate Sustainability Fund
Support ASOR’s efforts to reduce the environmental impact of fieldwork and operations, and to address the growing threat climate change poses to cultural heritage sites across the region.
Diversity Initiatives
Help ASOR broaden who gets to participate in and lead the study of the ancient Near East, through programming and support that opens the field to a wider range of scholars.
