This year's annual campaign is all about you.
You make the AAVSO what it is today.
The AID is full of your observations.
The research presented at the annual meetings and published in the journal is your research.
You are the people who represent the AAVSO and give talks to astronomy clubs and star parties.
The story of the AAVSO is the story of you and the thousands of others like you who have built it into what it is today. It is your generosity and support that has allowed the AAVSO to grow. It is your dreams and desires that will help shape the future of the organization.
Realizing those aspirations takes money. This year's annual campaign will run from May 1 to June 30. Our goal is to raise $40,000. This is money donated by you to keep your organization vital and relevant for another hundred years.
How are we doing? You can keep track of progress here. The campaign thermometer will be updated daily, showing how your donations are adding up to achieving this financial goal.
You can mail a check to AAVSO headquarters, or you can make a donation online. To make a gift online, just click Press Here button below or the Donate Now button on our home page. Annual Campaign is conveniently pre-selected in the drop down menu to make sure your gift is credited to the annual campaign fund.
This year we are going to show our gratitude to you, our donors, by offering you rewards for your generosity.
For donations of $100-299 you will receive a 1 5/8" diameter diffraction grating slide.
For donations of $300-599 we will send you a tote bag with the AAVSO logo.
And for donations of $600 or more you will receive a fine AAVSO travel mug.
