LSA Donor Acknowledgements (FY2026)
The Executive Committee set a goal of $100,000 for the FY 2026 Annual Fund drive because we want to continue the work you made possible last fiscal year. Members contributed $110,000 last year! This year, together, we can continue to advance the discipline of linguistics, support linguistics students, build a “big tent” LSA, and bring the insights and empirical findings of our discipline to policy makers.
