Join us in celebrating 100 years of ALISE for the the ALISE Centennial Anniversary. At this momentus time in our organizations history, ALISE will lay the foundation for another hundred years by supporting three member-driven strategic initiatives:
Building Leadership for the Future Funds raised in this campaign will enable our young professionals at attend conferences, build their nascent research programs, and bring inspiration and enthusiasm to our field.
Recognizing and Rewarding Excellence ALISE awards provide both recognition and incentives, taking our celebration of excellence to another level.
Developing a 21st Century ALISE Infrastructure The organizational infrastrcutre must be improved in order to to plan for a vibrant future for ALISE regardless of changes in information and communication technologies and organizational management trends.
Help support each of these initiatives by supporting the Centennial Fund as part of the ALISE Centennial Celebration. The goal of the Centennial Fund is to raise $100 for 100 years, generating $100,000 in funds by the January 2016 conference. Designated Centennial Fund monies will not support the association's operating budget, and contributions to the fund are tax deductible.
With six months left until the January 2016 conference, we have already raised $45,965, nearly half of our goal amount! A donation in any amount is welcome to help us grow nearer to our goal.
