Ways to Support HDSA Programs Volunteer: HDSA depends on the participation of volunteers to make its programs possible. Serve on a committee that is organizing an event, such as a walk-a-thon or hoop-a-thon or offer your services on the day of the event; ask your employer or local retailer to sponsor an event; recruit your friends and colleagues to create a team for an event; or solicit local businesses to donate their services or products to offset the costs of holding a fundraising, educational or public outreach event. Offer your skills and services: Your knowledge and experience can make a difference to your local HDSA Chapter or Affiliate. In the past year, volunteers have helped upgrade chapter websites, videotaped presentations, and provided other support services. Visit “Find HDSA in your Community” on the national website and contact your local leaders to learn what types of assistance they need. Become an HDSA Advocate: Become an active member of the HDSA Advocacy Team. Register in the Advocacy Section of the HDSA website and help us move our advocacy initiatives forward. Make a Direct Contribution: Visit the HDSA national website, www.hdsa.org and click on “Donate” on the home page. This will take you to a secure page where you may make a general donation, or one for research, care or education. If you prefer, you may print out the donation form and mail it to HDSA, 505 Eighth Avenue, Suite 902, New York, NY 10018, or call 1-800-345-HDSA. Create a Family Fund: Establish a Family Fund to honor your family or to remember a loved one. Join with friends and relatives, and pool your resources, to make your donated dollars work harder than you could individually. HDSA Tribute or Memorial Gift: Honor a friend or loved one with an HDSA Tribute Gift, or honor the memory of a loved one with an HDSA Memorial Gift. Matching Gifts: Your employer or organization may be part of the HDSA Matching Gifts Program, which doubles your donation. A list of participants is available on the HDSA website. If your employer is not part of this program, please request that they join us.
