of the generous support we receive through a number of methods and
programs:

AMAAM MONTHLY GIVING PROGRAM The
AMAAM Monthly Giving Program enables you to divide your total annual
gift to AMAAM into 12 monthly donations. On the First banking day
of each month, a transfer in the amount you choose is made from
your bank account, VISA or MasterCard.
You no longer need to write numerous checks and track tax receipts
throughout the year. We do the transfers for you and provide you
with one receipt at year-end (December) for your total annual giving.
By joining AMAAM Monthly Giving Program, you help us decrease
our administrative costs and your financial support is spread throughout
the year to assist with our ongoing operating costs.
Of course, should circumstances change, you may at anytime revise
or cancel your monthly donation amount by simply contacting us.

PLANNED GIVING Consider naming
AMAAM in your will, with the donation to come from your estate.
You can choose to commit a specific amount, or a percentage of your
estate. Please contact AMAAM for more information.
GIFTS IN KIND A gift-in-kind receipt
can be issued for any tangible gift to AMAAM. For example, if you
donated a specific item for a AMAAM auction, you would attach an
invoice showing its value and you would receive a tax receipt for
that amount.
Gift-in-kind receipts cannot be issued for services. Please contact
AMAAM for more information about donations of services.

YEAR-END TAX RECIEPTS: According to Revenue U.S. regulations,
tax receipts can only be issued for donations postmarked for that
fiscal year; that is by December 31. The date on the check and
the date of receipt at AMAAM are not considered in determining if
the deadline has been met. To ensure your tax receipt is issued
for the current fiscal year, please be sure it is POSTMARKED prior
to December 31. AMAAM will accept a check postdated for December
31 if you would prefer to mail in advance to ensure it is received
before the year-end deadline.
Thank you so much for your generosity.
