Anthropology Department Resource Fund
The Resource Fund is instrumental in supporting all functions of the Department of Anthropology, from purchases of specialized instruction materials and making improvements in offices and public spaces, to funding visits from renowned scholars and providing assistance for our students to travel to important academic conferences. This fund in particular helps the Department of Anthropology run smoothly and offer more programs and opportunities that our regular budget simply cannot provide. Funds donated to the Department Resource Fund may also be earmarked for specific ventures; email Sara Eddleman or call (716) 645-3960 if you would like to make a directed donation via this fund.
