ASSOCIATIONS SUPPORT HAITI RELIEF EFFORT
Posted April

The industry’s two major national
trade groups, AAMA and AMOA, are directing more than $15,000 to a
pair of charitable organizations that are assisting in the ongoing
earthquake relief efforts in Haiti. In the immediate aftermath of
the Jan. 12, disaster, the board of directors of the AMOA’s Coin-Op
Cares Foundation pledged $5,000 to support the efforts of Save the
Children and UNICEF with a challenge to commit up to another $5,000
in matching contributions.
The American Amusement Machine
Charitable Foundation quickly responded with a $5,000 donation to
the industry fundraising initiative. Several individuals from the
trade answered the request for contributions before and during last
month’s Amusement Expo and a total of $15,242 will be split between
the two children-focused charities actively involved in aiding
victims of the disaster that claimed the lives of more than 200,000
persons and left an estimated one million people homeless.
