We are extremely pleased that an anonymous donor established a special limited-time fund of up to $50,000, as matching gifts to benefit the Expedition. The Fund is administered by Dr. Anders Jepsen, who can be reached at AJViking@aol.com.

The fund was aimed at encouraging individuals and organizations not already part of the fundraising program to make significant contributions to the Project. Minimum donation was $1000. The deadline for this initial program was March 31, 2015. For details about this extraordinary gift program, please click here.
