Annual Report and Governance

Read the 2024 Annual Stakeholder Report

This Annual Stakeholder Report encompasses our institutional accomplishments of the last year and announces exciting upcoming projects. We gratefully acknowledge our members and donors for making it possible to advance the study of family history, heritage and culture in America and beyond. Our lifetime giving societies may be found on pages 52-58 and our annual giving circles may be found on pages 59-64. This presentation captures a small part of the noble efforts of generations of our predecessors upon whose good work we continue to build upon today and for future generations to come.
