The ASDP Charitable Foundation ended 2016 just shy of doubling the figure from the previous year. Both the number of member donors and the amount of donations increased by almost 50% over last year. Member support is a strong part of the equation looked at by potential industry donors, so we hope to make significant strides in this area during 2017. In keeping with this theme, we hope to end 2017 with a balance exceeding $25,000.

    As you proceed through the new year, we ask that you keep the foundation in the front of your giving plans. Donations can be made at any time during the year through the ASDP website. Another way easy way to contribute is to do all of your Amazon shopping by participating in Amazon Smile.

Go to www. smile.amazon.com to sign up and then just start shopping. Amazon will do the rest. We appreciate your support and will continue to keep you informed of our progress throughout the year.
