Recognizing Our Supporters

Every year hundreds of you give a few precious dollars to $100 for an annual journal subscription. This faithful support forms the firm foundation of our organization. Thank you!

Every donation—no matter the amount—makes a significant impact on our ability to deliver the scholarship, journalism, and creative spiritual expression we all value.

As a respected not-for-profit organization since 1969, your tax-deductible gift helps our team continue publishing high-quality articles exploring Adventism, amplifying underrepresented voices, and creating a community where ideas inspire.

Our IRS Employer Identification Number (EIN) is: 52-1006614. Consider becoming a supporter today.


Advisory Council

The ADVISORY COUNCIL is a group of committed SPECTRUM supporters who contribute to at least $500 per year, as well as advice during exclusive quarterly meetings, to ensure the strategic direction of the organization.
