ASOR ANNUAL MEETING

13 THINGS ASOR ACCOMPLISHED IN 2020 WITH THE SUPPORT OF OUR DONORS AND MEMBERS

It has become cliché to say that 2020 has been a year like no other. For ASOR, this has been a year when we expanded our scholarships and services in spite of the challenges (see the infographic below). While many societies and non-profits are tightening operations, we are expanding our reach and programs. ASOR has not only changed our name and renewed our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion—the ASOR Board has made a commitment to operate with an eye on the long-term, and we need your support and help to continue our shared work. Please consider renewing your membership or making a gift to ensure that ASOR thrives in 2021.

With your year-end gift to ASOR, you support archaeology in a very direct way. Every gift is meaningful. Small gifts of $10 or more not only add up, but they attract larger gifts. Here’s another advantage to donating to ASOR in calendar year 2020—the federal stimulus bill, or CARES Act, may have a positive impact for anyone who pays taxes in the United States.

  • If you give up to $300 in cash (credit card gifts count) to charity in 2020, and you use the standard deduction, the CARES Act allows you to add that amount to your standard deduction. In other words, it may decrease your taxable income.
  • If you itemize, in 2020 you can deduct your charitable contributions up to 100% of your adjusted gross income (usually 30/50% of AGI).

All the details on the CARES Act can be found on the IRS website. If you have any questions about giving to ASOR, please don’t hesitate to contact Andy Vaughn.

 

 

Thank you to all our generous members and donors!
