Development
The mission, objectives, and evolving research programs of the Krasnow Institute for Advanced Study are unique and challenging to its scientific investigators and researchers. But that mission also presents a challenge to those seeking to carry out Shelley Krasnow's vision of establishing the Institute and assuring its growing capacity to continue to support the research programs needed to fulfill the mission for which it was created. To meet this challenge, the director has committed to a development program designed to promote the Institute, and to organize and direct efforts to seek and cultivate financial and related support.
Endowment
The Krasnow Institute is supported by the George Mason University Foundation, an independent 501(c) (3) organization. The Krasnow Institute will continue to benefit from gifts in addition to the initial endowment established through Shelley Krasnow's generosity. Such gifts secure the long-term financial well-being of the Institute and enhance research capabilities and opportunities for continued growth. Gifts of any amount are welcome and of great benefit.
