Other Fundraising Events

DSAA is a 501 (c)(3) organization and all donations are tax deductible.  Members and friends are encouraged to make donations to DSAA.  Many employers have a matching program, which doubles the amount given.  Some dedicated members make birthday contributions in honor of their loved one and many members designate memorial gifts to DSAA. 

Some corporate foundations make grants available to organizations supported by their employees.  If you are aware of a corporate grant that DSAA might be eligible for, contact DSAA's Executive Director, at .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) for more information.  DSAA has in the past received corporate grants from Lockeed Martin, UPS Foundation, and others.
