This past year, fundraising was very strong with total scholar donations of approximately $425,000. A record number of ARCS Atlanta members gave at the Century Level and several new non-members prospects were identified. Our corporate donors, which include Joachim Herz Stiftung, Northside Hospital, Genuine Parts and Georgia-Pacific continued their on-going generosity and our newest corporate donor, Roche Diagnostics, will make a generous contribution this year to our Scholar Awards.

In the 2025 – 2026 academic year, ARCS Atlanta will support 53 scholars: 15 scholars each at Emory University, Georgia Tech and University of Georgia, and 8 scholars at Morehouse College. We are pleased to report that this year, ARCS Atlanta will raise the amount of the scholar awards to $9,000 for each scholar at Emory, Georgia Tech and University of Georgia; it will raise the scholar awards to $6,000 for each scholar at Morehouse.

The Funds Development Committee meets monthly. The meetings are open to all ARCS members and we especially encourage our new ARCS members to attend.
