2020 Events

In March of 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic dictated that there could be no in-person events and all events were held virtually. The Fall Party was held via Zoom with games and breakout rooms to introduce our new members. The Scholar Awards Celebration highlighted our scholars and several major donors. There was also an excellent presentation by Dr. Ann Chahroudi on COVID-19 in Children. One very successful idea was Zoom conversations between Donors and their Scholars. Two examples of these Zoom conversations are below:

I am immensely grateful to the ARCS Foundation and Turner Enterprises for making my award possible. I am honored to have been part of the talented and promising group of young researchers from the Atlanta-area!

The work you (ARCS Foundation Atlanta members) have all done is tremendous, and I am so proud to be a part of that legacy. I hope that my work is making you all feel that there has been a good return on your investment.
