Thank you for Supporting the 2024 Past Presidents Challenge!

On behalf of the ASABE Foundation, we are delighted to share the incredible results of our 2024 Past Presidents Challenge. Your generosity helped us achieve a remarkable total of $100,000 in NEW donations to advance ASABE’s mission and impact! 

With the contributions from the Past Presidents and the Foundation match, we are thrilled to announce a total impact of $154,000 being directed into specific funds that support awards, scholarships, and special projects.

This success was made possible by:

  • Nearly $23,000 in contributions from our dedicated Past Presidents,
  • An inspiring $77,000 in new donations from our generous supporters just like you, and
  • $54,000 in additional matching funds from the ASABE Foundation, amplifying the impact of your contributions.

Thanks to your support, we are better equipped to celebrate excellence, foster innovation, and inspire the next generation of agricultural and biological engineers, with special emphasis on our 2025 funding priorities:

Every gift makes a difference, and we are grateful for your role in this collective achievement.  The following chart details how these donations were distributed:
