WE HAVE GOOD NEWS TO SHARE
With the generous donors and the commitment of the Board of Trustees, the TMS Foundation successfully navigated a volatile economy in 2022, with its year-end appeal efforts posting $186.155-the third best year on record and a marked increase from 2021. While every donation in 2022 made a difference, the Foundation also greatly benefited from acts of extraordinary generosity. In particular, Cady would like to recognize the support of Robyn and Rob Wagoner, TMS Foundation Diamond members, who donated $50,000 in 2022. This is the latest testament to their long-standing, exceptional commitment to the foundation and its important work. It is the belief in the TMS Foundation's mission, as exemplified by Robyn and Rob, that has enabled them to make progress on their strategic goals, which the TMS Foundation Board of Trustees adopted in Feb 2020, just weeks before the global pandemic shutdown. In Nov 2022, the Board of Trustees announced significant progress on two of those goals.

Donate Time or Money? The Determinants of Donation Intention in Online Crowdfunding
Compared with traditional charities, donation-based crowdfunding has many novel characteristics. Among the variety of factors that influence potential donors before they develop a donation intention, which are the main ones influencing the intention to donate online? The purpose of this paper is to investigate the key potential determinants of both time and money donations. This study attempts to combine the theory of planned behavior and norm activation theory with social presence theory to conceptualize and develop an integration framework to measure the donation intention. The results of the structural equation modeling, based on 350 valid questionnaire responses received from November 19 to December 19, 2018, suggest that the dependent variable of time donations is significantly affected by social presence, trust, and perceived behavioral control. As for the dependent variable of money donations, only subjective norm has an insignificant effect. The study results offer practical guidelines about the unique aspects of donation to managers of crowdfunding platform and fundraisers.

Elizabeth Gaskell's House: 84 Plymouth Grove
After fantastic audience numbers in 2024, we were delighted that our online educational events programme was shortlisted for the Frances Garnham Award for innovative approach to education by the Historic Houses Association (HHA), the results of which have yet to be announced. Off the back of this project, and with grant funding from Museum Development North, we were also able to run a series of summer holiday workshops with artists and writers, specifically targeting families in the hyper-local area. Despite all the accolades, ceaseless hard work and volunteer hours, we still struggle to keep up with the financial challenges of running and maintaining a Grade II· listed building and continue to need donations and grants to bridge the gap.
