The Annual Giving Program funds all aspects of The Jackson Laboratory: Research, Education, Genetic Resource Science, JAX®  Mice & Services, and Advancement and External Relations. There are five annual giving clubs, each characterized by a different level of annual commitment to the Laboratory. 

The Jackson Laboratory’s fiscal year historically began June 1 and ended May 31. We are currently transitioning to the calendar year and operating in a shortened fiscal year that runs from June 1 to Dec. 31, 2011.
