Even if you’ve been with MAPACA for years, you may learn something new.

Donations
Did you know that MAPACA is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit? This means that you can make tax deductible donations to help us keep going! While all MAPACA Board members, Area Chairs, and the Response staff are volunteers, there are a lot of expenses involved with running our annual conference and Response, our open-access journal.
What could your donation buy? Here are some examples:
$25 could help defray the cost of buying two Zoom licenses for our conference.
$75 could buy one hour of web development work (we are currently saving up for a huge, necessary website upgrade that will cost us many hours of work!)
With conference registration fees, MAPACA just about breaks even every year. Your donations could help us do more, and any amount helps!
