Members of the Auburn Adventist Academy Committee of 100 have made it their goal to share their blessings with the next generation of God’s followers. At a recent meeting, the committee decided to fund every project on the academy’s wish list, for a total of $48,369.
The committee had a total of $21,775 to spend this year (not including 10 percent reserved for a special trust fund for large projects). Members had the opportunity to fund a wish list beyond their first financial commitment. Taking the challenge, members within minutes funded every project.
Funded projects include three maintenance golf carts, teaching equipment for Miller Aquatic Center, a 50-inch plasma HDTV, a baritone saxophone, a SMART Board for the Bible room, and an outdoor meditation garden.
AAA’s Committee of 100 began in 1994 as a fundraising organization. More than 50 members are currently part of this group. Over the past 12 years, the Committee of 100 has raised nearly $890,000. It plans to continue growing and giving to further benefit Auburn Adventist Academy, not just with monetary support, but, more importantly, through the example of their lives.
