GivingTuesday is a worldwide day of giving that is celebrated on the Tuesday following Thanksgiving. Since its inception in 2012, GivingTuesday has given people the opportunity to make generous gifts to causes they care about, which has culminated in billions of dollars being contributed to nonprofit organizations around the world. This year, GivingTuesday will be celebrated on December 2.
This year, we are excited to once again take part in this global day of generosity. We have set a fundraising goal of $5,000 to help support AMA's programs, such as scholarships, the National Model Aviation Museum, the Flying Site Improvement Grant, the Take off And Grow Grant, building the Foundation's endowment to help secure the future of model aviation, and so much more.
To help us celebrate this day and make it as successful as possible, we are partnering with Pink Ribbon Good (PRG). PRG is an organization dedicated to supporting individuals diagnosed with breast and gynecological cancers. Providing free meals, rides to treatment, housecleaning essentials, and peer support, PRG is a rainbow in the storm that cancer creates for hundreds of thousands of individuals across the country each year, including AMA members and their loved ones.
This year, 15% of all money raised on GivingTuesday will be donated to PRG.
If you find yourself feeling thankful for this hobby and all of the memories and experiences it has afforded you, we encourage you to look into our different giving options. Fuel your passion and leave a lasting legacy on model aviation, all while directly supporting the individuals battling breast and gynecological cancers.
