Donate

The Bertrand Russell Society is a non-profit organization (a incorporated entity with IRS non-profit status). We welcome donations! Donations go towards our three aims:

  1. to promote interest in the life and work of Bertrand Russell (1872–1970)
  2. to bring together persons interested in any aspect of the foregoing
  3. to promote causes that Russell championed

We would be quite touched by your support of these aims. Now more than ever, humanity needs free-thinkers and pursuers of knowledge, and persons driven chiefly by their love for their fellows.

To donate by mail, you may send a check for the desired amount to this address:

Landon D. C. Elkind
Political Science, Grise Hall 520
Western Kentucky University
1906 College Heights Blvd
Bowling Green, KY 42101-1086

“There lies before us, if we choose, continual progress in happiness, knowledge, and wisdom. Shall we, instead, choose death, because we cannot forget our quarrels? We appeal, as human beings, to human beings: Remember your humanity, and forget the rest. If you can do so, the way lies open to a new Paradise; if you cannot, there lies before you the risk of universal death.”

– Russell-Einstein Manifesto, 9 July 1955
