The AACC is a 501(c) nonprofit organization that is primarily supported through charitable donations. While the University of Idaho's Department of Sociology/Anthropology provides space to house the Collection within the Laboratory of Anthropology, no University or State funding is available to conserve or expand it. Even its Curator is a volunteer. Individuals and organizations provide financial assistance for the AACC's Operating Expenses through monetary or in-kind donations, through subscriptions to the AACC Newsletter, or by purchasing AACC publications, so that we can acquire the artifacts, books, and images that increase the AACC's scope and usefulness.
In honor of the University of Idaho's first 100 years, a group of friends established the AACC Endowment Fund. Income from the fund will eventually support acquisitions, translation activities, educational exhibits, research, conservation, and publications.
The expansion of the AACC is
fostered by the generosity of individuals and groups. Your support
of the AACC Endowment Fund is needed to encourage the
Collection's growth, development, and outreach well into the
twenty-first century. Our eventual goal is to have an Endowment of
$1,000,000 or more (naming rights, anyone?) so that it will
generate enough interest income to fund a part- or full-time
curatorial position.
Donations to the AACC's Operating Expenses or the AACC
Endowment Fund can be made by mail or online through the
University of Idaho Foundation (TAX ID: 23-7098404).
