Giving to CU: Friends of Asian Studies Flatirons Fund and More

Friends of Asian Studies Flatirons Fund

CAS is excited to announce a new opportunity available to help provide long-term support to CU students and programming. Contributions to the will create an endowment to further the CAS mission, which includes supporting research, instruction, and outreach about Asia on the CU-Boulder campus. The fund will be used at the discretion of the CAS Director, with current priorities including the CAS Annual Symposium (see page 7 for information) and scholarships defraying the cost of student travel to Asia for study abroad and internships.

Contributors to the Friends of Asian Studies Flatirons Fund are asked to make a minimum donation of $500 or pledge two $250 donations over two years. After reaching $10,000, the fund will become an endowment. Continued donations to the fund beyond the endowment level will be welcome and will enable the Center to further enhance its offerings over the coming years. We are pleased to share that since the Fund was created less than six months ago, we have already received $2,200 in pledges and donations.

If you believe that programming and instruction about Asia is critical to the University’s educational mission, please consider a donation. To thank you for your support, you will be included in the Friends of Asian Studies program each year that you make a Flatirons Fund contribution.

To make a pledge or contribution, please contact CAS Executive Director Danielle Rocheleau Salaz at salaz@colorado.edu, or by telephone at 303-735-5312. Thank you for considering supporting the Friends of Asian Studies Flatirons Fund.
