ASB is in excellent financial health at the end of 2022 with a balance of $338,209 and investments totaling $233,764.  We continue to work with Podium in streamlining our processes including invoicing, membership dues, and budgeting.  Both society and conference budgets will now be determined in the first quarter of the year, giving the Society a better grasp on the overall financial health of ASB.

Awards & Grants:

The Nike gift of $50,000 received in 2021 was distributed this year via the B-SURE and GRADE programs.  In addition, over $40,000 from the Society’s funds were distributed in additional grants and awards!

Membership Dues:

We have also added a new Retiree membership rate under the Regular Member category, similar to the Early Career rate added in 2021.

Looking forward:

In cooperation with the Executive Board and society members, in 2023 we plan to further evaluate the long term strategic financial goals of the society as this relates to the establishment of new programming and awards, grants funding mechanisms for the Society, external donations, etc.
