I am raising money because I know first-hand how our scholarships benefit people from all different walks of life. As a member I was blessed with a 50% scholarship when I joined. I just could not afford the membership rate without a discount at the time. The moment I became an employee I started giving back and I have been doing so for 7 years now. Every year I have either matched or increased my annual staff donation so that I can continue to help bless others the way that this Association has blessed me and my family!
