Welcome from the Alumni Association President...
Dear Friends and Alumni of ATS,
We, the members of the Alumni Association, are praying and working to discern ways to best serve and minister to you. Our goal is three fold:
-To build in our alumni a sense of positive pride and ownership toward ATS - your Alma Mater.
-To develop regional/local alumni chapters which will serve to pull our alumni together for fellowship, continuing educational purposes, and spiritual enrichment.
-To reach 65% alumni involvement in the life and support of ATS.
We would appreciate any ideas or insights as to how we can best meet our stated goals. Any suggestions or comments will be taken into consideration.
My brothers and sisters in Christ, I have prayed and asked our Lord to equip and enable me to serve you for His glory. Please pray with and for me that I would discharge the duties of this position with a spirit of godliness, integrity, compassion and wisdom.
In closing, I encourage you, our ATS alumni, with the following words: Let us come together to support and help advance His Kingdom through the training and equipping of the Saints of ATS.
His Servant Lamb,
Min. Donna A. Baptiste, President, ATS Alumni Association

Simple Ways to Support Your Alma Mater...
What if Nyack/ATS earned a penny every time you searched the Internet?
Well, now we can! GoodSearch.com is a new search engine that donates ad revenue, about a penny per search, to the charity its users designate. Use it just like any search engine, and its powered by Yahoo!, so you get the same great results. Just go to www.goodsearch.com and enter Nyack College as the organization you want to support. Just 500 of us searching four times a day will raise about $7,300 in a year without anyone spending a dime! Get started right now and download the GoodSearch toolbar - www.goodsearch.com/toolbars.aspx.
What if every time you shopped online a percentage of the sale went to Nyack/ATS?
More than 100 great stores including Target, Macy's, The Gap, Best Buy, Nordstrom, PetSmart, Staples and Wal*Mart have teamed up with GoodSearch to do just that. It's simple. No username or password is required. Just go to http://www.goodsearch.com/goodshopping.aspx and enter Nyack College as the organization you want to support, then click on the store's logo from the GoodShop site and then shop as you normally would. You'll get the same great prices, but every time you place an order, you'll be supporting your alma mater with donations around 3% of the sale but can exceed 20%!
How would you like to turn your vacations into donations for Nyack/ATS?
You can now book your personal and business travel through our new travel website, www.nyacktravel.com. Every time you do, Nyack College & Alliance Theological Seminary will receive a portion of the travel commissions. On the Nyack travel website, you will always find the same airlines, hotels, rental cars, cruises and more that you would find on Expedia or Travelocity, plus the same great rates! Travel companies pay large commissions to those service industries for your reservation. But now, when you book through the Nyack travel website, the college will get 40% of those commissions, and you will get low travel prices while supporting Nyack/ATS!
At www.magfundraising.com/nyack, you can purchase or renew your favorite magazine subscriptions from over 650 titles at up to 85% off newsstand prices. 40% of your purchase is donated directly to Nyack/ATS!
