over 1,500 MOAA members agree, donating or pledging more than $150,000 to support these programs. Our goal is for every MOAA or
Voices for America’s Troops member to donate at least $25 once each year to MMFI to support these programs. This modest gesture on the part of every MOAA member would fully fund all these programs and provide suffi cient additional funding to signifi - cantly expand their reach and impact. Not surprisingly, many MOAA members already have committed to signifi cant leadership gifts to the foundation. In order to properly rec- ognize all our supporters throughout the year, MMFI has created three programs to honor and recognize those who join us in this challenge.
MOAA Heritage Society The MOAA Heritage Society rec- ognizes our most dedicated and committed supporters, compris- ing individuals, organizations, and chapters committing to multiyear pledges of unrestricted funding at the highest level of support. Mem- bers receive MOAA pins refl ecting four giving levels, ranging from $250 a year for fi ve years (bronze) to $10,000 a year for fi ve years (platinum). To join the society, those eligible must be MOAA Life members. Those who join before Dec. 31 are considered Founding Members, and their lapel pins in- clude a diamond chip signifying their status. All founder names will be engraved on the perma- nent Swords and Sabers display at MOAA’s national headquarters.
MOAA Distinguished Contributor Program For individuals, organizations, or chapters that make signifi cant gifts, MMFI has created the Distinguished Contributor Program with three one-time gift levels: Leadership Con- tributor: $1,000 or more; Principal Contributor: $500-$999; and Major Contributor: $250-$499. All Distin- guished Contributors are recognized in Military Offi cer once each year.
$25-in-’15 Campaign Refl ecting our shared commitment to never stop serving, MOAA is ask- ing every member to contribute $25 to the foundation just once each year to build a solid base of annual sup- port for the 14 high-impact programs funded by the foundation. Designed to enable MOAA members to sup- port the foundation and also con- tribute to MOAA’s Scholarship Fund, this campaign will operate continu- ously throughout the year.
Other ways to help Supplementing these three programs is the MOAA Sponsorship Program. Organizations are invited to spon- sor one of MOAA’s special events, such as the annual Warrior-Family Symposium in Washington, D.C., showcasing health, wellness and re- integration issues or the “Keeping a Career on the Move®” MOAA spouse symposium in Tampa, Fla. For those who already have
given, thank you. For those who are considering a gift, your com- mitment to never stop serving will make a powerful diff erence.
