Thank you for your interest in joining Project Next! 

Project Next is the "next iteration" of Project 2020. Project 2020 began in 2009 with the idea to create a giving circle of shareholders that would donate over a period of ten years for a yet-to-be-determined project. The Bryan Area Foundation then invested the donations, and the group facilitated inviting the community to participate in generating project ideas. As a result, Project 2020 built and gifted the Fountain City Amphitheater to the City of Bryan.

Project Next kicked off in 2022 and will collect until June 30, 2032. Together, Project Next Shareholders will be involved with funding, selecting, and implementing another meaningful community project. To become a Project Next shareholder, please complete the membership form. 

In completing this form, you are pledging to contribute monthly until June 30, 2032. The form lists the options to join and pay monthly. The minimum contribution to join is $600 per year ($50 per month). When you provide your payment information you will be asked if you would like to contribute an additional amount to cover processing. You have no obligation to pay for processing. To opt out of paying an additional fee, click on the drop-down menu, select "other" and type "0" in the contribution amount box.
