Model aviation is more than just a hobby—it's a source of joy, connection, and healing for countless enthusiasts. As we take flight into 2025, AMA is thrilled to offer two meaningful partnerships to support your mental and physical well-being and your future. These initiatives are designed to help you take to the skies with peace of mind.
Fly Into Wellness with Grouper
At AMA, we understand how our sport positively impacts our members' mental and physical health. That's why we've partnered with Grouper to provide an incredible benefit for our members aged 65 and older. If you have an eligible health plan, you can now get your AMA membership fees reimbursed! This program aims to cover participation costs for activities that provide social connection and keep you healthy. You can learn more and see if you're eligible here.
Plan for Your Future with FreeWill
Beyond supporting your current health, AMA is committed to helping you secure your future. Through our partnership with FreeWill, we're offering members a free and easy-to-use estate planning tool. This resource empowers you to:
- Show care for yourself and your loved ones by creating a will.
- Ensure your passions and priorities are protected for years to come.
- Optionally include a legacy gift to AMA, strengthening the next generation of model aviators and joining our AMA Legacy Society.
More than 85 AMA members have already embraced this opportunity to plan their futures. By creating an estate plan, you not only take care of yourself and your family but also have the chance to support the community that has brought you so much joy. And remember, using FreeWill is completely free, regardless of whether you include a gift to AMA. Click here to create your plan. If you've already made a will and included a gift to AMA, let us know here.
Why These Acts of Care Matter
Model aviation fosters a sense of community, purpose, and fulfillment. These partnerships ensure AMA members can continue enjoying these benefits while caring for their health and planning for what lies ahead. It's just two more ways the AMA supports you both in the air and on the ground.
Thank you for being a valued member of the AMA community. Here's to a year filled with blue skies and peace of mind.
