Designated Gift Opportunities
Fellowships or Other Awards

These opportunities provide essential financial support not only to students and early-career researchers, but also to museums and cultural institutions dedicated to preserving and interpreting ancient heritage.

You also support museums in their efforts to conserve collections and safeguard their cultural legacy.
Through your designated gift, you play a vital role in uncovering the past, preserving heritage, and advancing the next generation of experts committed to Italic and Etruscan studies.
