‘Tis the season for Holiday Helping Hands!
We are now accepting applications and nominations for our holiday member assistance program through Tuesday, November 18 at noon.
Holiday Helping Hands supports AaNA members who are coping with difficult circumstances and may not have the means to purchase gifts or holiday meals for their families.
Here’s how it works:
You can apply for yourself, or nominate a fellow member who could use some extra assistance.
If you are a member of AaNA, you are eligible to apply. If you are facing financial stress due to unemployment, serious health concerns, fleeing domestic violence, family loss, etc. we want to help you!
On the application, tell us why your family could use a helping hand and what your specific needs are (gifts for children or spouse, groceries for meal, decorations, etc.)
To ensure we can extend our help to many families, please note that each member is eligible to participate in this program a maximum of two times.
The deadline to apply or nominate a member is Tuesday, November 18 at noon.
When the application period closes, our team will approve requests for help and reach out to participating families.
This is where the rest of you come in! We will post wish lists and begin accepting gift donations around Thanksgiving. If you’d like to donate directly to the program, you can donate online today. With your help, we can spread holiday cheer to our colleagues in need.
