These are relatively low-effort to set up—I spend maybe 10-20h a year on them. If you are interested in setting up a similar thing for your discipline/​social circles, feel very welcome to reach out for help.
Any share with philosophers or university patriots that you know would be especially welcome. The fundraiser is a ‘competition’ between departments that aggregates donations; the winner is announced on the popular philosophy blog ‘DailyNous’. Last year, the good folks at Delaware won. Before that, Michigan took the crown. Ohio State and Villanova lie in shambles.
Any help much appreciated! These are easy to run—if you are interested in starting one for your discipline, please reach out.
I am organizing a fundraising competition between Philosophy Departments for AMF.

Previous editions have netted (badum-tschak) roughly $40.000:

Any contributions are very welcome, as is sharing the fundraiser. A more official-looking announcement is on Dailynous, a central blog of academic philosophy: people found this ideal for sharing via e.g. department listservs.

Another Philosophers Against Malaria Fundraiser has begun: https://​​www.againstmalaria.com/​​FundraiserGroup.aspx?FundraiserID=9418
In the last years, we got ca $65.000 in donations. Early donations are especially helpful, as they populate the page and give a sense of dynamism!
