GTBACP Chapter 2024 Fundraiser

Last year, our chapter came together in an extraordinary way, raising an impressive $1000 in donations. Thanks to the overwhelming generosity of our members and conference attendees, we successfully matched the full amount, netting $2000 in funds for those in need.

This year, we are again proud to partner with the American Red Cross, an organization dedicated to meeting the immediate needs of individuals, families, and communities affected by disasters. And as we’ve recently experienced firsthand, the importance of their work has never been clearer.

A Message to Our GTBACP Community:

As we face the aftermath of Hurricanes Helene and Milton, we know that you, too, may have endured losses or already given generously to support recovery efforts. But, as our neighbors struggle to rebuild their lives, we’re asking for your help, even if it’s a small gift. 

Over the past few weeks, our community in Tampa Bay and across Florida has weathered immense challenges. Families have lost homes, cherished belongings, and, for many, the peace and security they once knew. The impact of these back-to-back storms is felt deeply by us all, and together we grieve for what has been lost.

Yet even in our hardest days, the strength of our community shines through. If you’re among those who were spared the worst, you now have the power to lift up those who are facing the long road to recovery. Every contribution, big or small, makes a difference in the lives of our neighbors who need it most.

Double & Triple the Impact of Your Donation:

Through our partnership with the American Red Cross, your donation will be doubled—up to $1,000—thanks to the Chapter's generous chapter match. And, in even more encouraging news, our chapter president, Brandon Edwards, has pledged an additional match of up to $1,000. This means that for every dollar you give, your impact will be tripled, helping our community rebuild stronger than before.

Special Incentive for Donations of $50 or More:

As a heartfelt thank-you, each person who donates $50 or more will be entered into a raffle for a chance to win complimentary conference passes to DRJ Spring 2025, DRI 2025, and Continuity Insights 2025. We extend our sincere gratitude to these sponsors for their support in making this possible.
