The American Society of Radiologic Technologists (ASRT) Foundation is celebrating its 40th anniversary with plans to raise $400,000 to support scholarships in 2024.
Among events planned to highlight the milestone is a 1980s-themed fundraiser on June 29 during the ASRT Annual Governance and House of Delegates Meeting in Orlando, Florida. All funds raised will support professional and educational advancement opportunities for medical imaging and radiation therapy students and professionals, the ASRT Foundation said.
In addition, the foundation will launch a matching partner campaign where donations will be matched by participating donors.
The ASRT Foundation is also inviting individuals and corporations to start a named scholarship or have their names included on the ASRT Foundation Donor Wall, which is located near the entrance of the ASRT Museum and Archives at the ASRT office in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Campaign supporters have the option to purchase naming rights to facilities and meeting spaces at the ASRT office.
To participate in the campaign, donations may be made by mail to: ASRT Foundation, 15000 Central Ave. SE, Albuquerque, NM 87123-3909. Donations may also be made through the Foundation website by selecting the Give Now option at the top of the page, the organization said.
