Donor Societies

Members of ACTA’s Donor Societies are a select group of individuals whose efforts help determine the future course of higher education. They receive regular insider advisories as well as invitations to exclusive ACTA events. In recent years, speakers at our special donor events have included former governor of Indiana Mitch Daniels, historian Gordon Wood, CUNY board chair Benno Schmidt, and First Amendment scholar Philip Hamburger. ACTA is a nonprofit 501(c)(3), and all contributions to ACTA are tax-deductible to the full extent allowed by law.
