What does donating do?
This year, we’re raising money for Woodson Ambassadors. But why support ASALH today? ASALH’s 2024 #GivingTuesday campaign is dedicated to increasing Woodson Ambassadors for next year’s Annual Conference. We want to inspire, support and develop the next generation of Black historians, social scientists, scholars and educators. Our goal is to raise sufficient funds to support 25 Woodson Ambassadors to attend the 2025 Annual Conference.
We are living in a time when states are in a frenzy to pass laws that prevent the teaching of our experience. Many have or are in the process of banning books about our history and culture. Only twelve states mandate the teaching of our history and culture in the public school system. We are being told that telling our history and lived experience brings such discomfort to school-age children that it should be illegal to do so. Therefore, we need to ensure that the next generation has the opportunity to participate in activities that accurately reflect our socio-historical experience. By contributing to ASALH’s #GivingTuesday campaign, you can help keep Dr. Woodson’s dream alive.
We hope to add at least 25 Woodson Ambassadors ($1,000 per ambassador) through this effort. All donations are welcomed and appreciated!
