Annual Giving Campaign

Each year the Foundation conducts an Annual Giving Campaign. Individuals, vendors, and schools are solicited each fall for their support of the Massage Therapy Foundation. To see a list of donors who contributed in the 2007 Annual Giving Campaign, click here.

Donors can contribute to the Annual Giving Campaign at any level they see fit.  For more information on giving levels and benefits associated with each level, click here.

If you have questions about the Annual Giving Campaign, please contact Nelson Boyette, Development Manager, for more information.

Dollar- Per-Member Campaign
The Dollar-Per-Member Chapter Campaign was spearheaded by the AMTA New York Chapter – and followed by three other AMTA Chapters (IL, CT, and CO) – as a way for AMTA Chapters to support the Foundation. Each summer, chapters are contacted by Foundation volunteers who request that chapters contribute a dollar per chapter member to the Foundation. Chapters who participate in this special program are honored each year at the AMTA National Convention.

The 2007 Dollar-Per-Member Campaign raised over $40,000 with 39 chapters participating.  To see a list of Chapters who participated in the 2007 Dollar-Per-Member Campaign, click here.

If your Chapter would like to participate in the Dollar-Per-Member Campaign please contact, Colleen Kruse, Foundation Manager, for more information.

Donor Testimonials


“I’m excited to support an organization that adds such value to my chosen profession. The Massage Therapy Foundation contributes so much to research and case reports and I’m continually impressed with the depth and breadth of the reports.”  - Doreen Rossi

 

“We began donating to the Foundation in 2003 because we saw it as an opportunity to support the profession in areas that are often overlooked.  We’re proud that our donation helps in three ways:  (1) to fund research for a greater understanding of massage, (2) to educate practitioners, the public, and other healthcare providers, and (3) to help fund massage programs for populations in need.  It’s a great way to give back to the profession that has been supportive of our company.”
- Books of Discovery Staff




"As a veteran massage therapist, I am delighted to have the opportunity to contribute quarterly to the Massage Therapy Foundation. The foundation, in its support of evidence-based research and clinical studies, community projects, and up to date literature reviews, has elevated the standing of our profession by validating with science what we already know and experience with our hands and hearts." - Kate Jordan, HHP, NCTMB, CSCS
