Description
The Swedish–American Historical Society appreciates your generous donations. We now offer you the convenience of donating to the Society using our secure online service. Please consider making a donation today.
In 2023, the Society launched a bold new fundraising campaign to mark its 75th anniversary. We seek to raise at least $250,000 in additional funding to create the Philip J. Anderson Publications Endowment, building on the amount already pledged toward this goal. Income from the endowment will be used to supplement the cost of editing, producing, marketing, and distributing the new version of our esteemed journal: Swedish-American Studies. This will allow the journal to remain affordable for the Society’s members, and make the journal accessible to scholars and lay readers alike.
