AJ HARRIS FUNDRAISER

BSA is collecting funds in memory of AJ Harris to establish a graduate student research award in her name in perpetuity. We are thrilled to announce that the first goal of $20,000 has been met and an award will be established! Thank you to all who have supported the AJ Harris memorial graduate student research award fund!
A second goal has been proposed that will allow the AJ Harris Graduate Student Research Award to be at the same award level as the other current Graduate Student Research Awards, which is $1500. For this to happen, an additional $5000 will need to be raised by September 30, 2023. Please consider donating further to reach this additional goal.
Graduate student research awards are open to all students, including non-US citizens. Your donation to this fundraising effort to the BSA is tax deductible and you will receive a tax donation receipt upon making your gift. Thank you for your contributions in honor of AJ Harris.
Original Goal = $20,000
Raised = $20,000
Left to Raise = $0
New Goal = $5,000 more
Raised = $300
Left to Raise = $4,700
This new goal will raise the annual award to $1,500 per year.
