Among the many worthwhile activities, awards and programs that the AAA supports through its fundraising efforts are the following important funds. Your gift may be designated to a specific fund or divided between more than one.

Online Syllabus Exchange:  An online tool to allow members to easily exchange syllabi and allow more open access to course arrangements. The syllabus exchange page will provide additional resources to help educators reinvigorate their courses and advance anthropological "Teaching for the 21^st Century."

Minority Fellowship Fund: In hopes of encouraging more people of diverse backgrounds to either enter the discipline of anthropology, or to aid them in their pursuit of advanced anthropological degrees, the AAA seeks to fund our current Minority Fellowship Fund program. With your support, we can continue to offer financial assistance to minority scholars to complete their dissertations. Additional funds will provide financial assistance to minority individuals studying at the associate, baccalaureate and masters degree levels. View a list of Minority Fellowship recipients.

AAA Endowment Fund: Our general endowment fund is the keystone to our future, as we continue to build and broaden our programs and services. It is an investment in our future, to ensue that the AAA will be around to advance the discipline of anthropology during its second hundred years. The principal of this fund is never touched; the annual interest is used for priority needs as determined by the AAA Executive Board.
