All Souls/Beckner Advancement Fund

Fund background and overview

The All Souls-Beckner Advancement Fund was established through a generous donation from Earl and Meta Beckner in 1973. Their intent for the fund, as documented in the Deed of Gift, was to

  • enhance the influence of All Souls Church in the Washington metropolitan area;
  • help to make the immediate community where the Church is located a more cohesive, attractive, and forward looking community; and
  • foster human rights and dignity.
