Give to JASNA's Annual Fund

Support JASNA with a donation to our Annual Fund.

As a non-profit organization, JASNA relies on donations to supplement membership dues and fund the programs and strategic initiatives that support its mission: to foster among the widest number of readers the study, appreciation, and understanding of Jane Austen’s works, life, and genius.

Every gift, no matter the size, makes an impact. Your support enables us to offer: 

• Outreach programs that inspire new generations of readers to explore Austen's works through initiatives like JASNA’s Essay Contest, Young Filmmakers Contest, Austen Chat podcast, and Jane Austen Book Box program.
• Grants that help JASNA's regional groups host engaging programs and events in their communities.
• JASNA's signature Annual General Meeting (AGM), which brings together Austen enthusiasts and scholars for the largest conference of its kind, while also generating content for our highly regarded publications, Persuasions and Persuasions Online.
• New initiatives aimed at serving and retaining our growing membership for years to come.

Donations to JASNA are deductible for U.S. income tax purposes. Donations made directly to JASNA Canada are deductible for Canadian income tax purposes and support activities in Canadian regions.
