AFSA has launched a fundraising effort to support short- and long-term recovery efforts in communities across the southeast U.S. affected by Hurricanes Helene and Milton, virtually raffling off one fully paid registration for the 2025 AFSA conference of the winner’s choice, Vehicle or Independents Conference & Expos in New Orleans or Huntington Beach, CA respectively, or the Annual Meeting in Washington, DC. All proceeds will be donated to the American Red Cross, which has teams deployed in every state that is in the midst of recovery efforts from the hurricane and its after effects.
Virtual raffle tickets can be purchased here, and the winner will be announced at the 2024 Annual Meeting in Phoenix on October 23 during the Level Up Breakfast. Thanks to all who are already engaged in supporting relief and recovery efforts and for taking the opportunity to support our effort, as well.
