Today is Giving Tuesday. This message was sent to all of our ALDA members and subscribers:
-----------------
Dear ALDA family,
The holiday season is a time for reflection, gratitude, and connection. This year, we invite you to consider making a donation to ALDA today, on Giving Tuesday*, as a meaningful way to celebrate someone special while helping others find the understanding and community they deserve.
You may make a general donation to ALDA or a gift to honor:
- A loved one who inspires you
- In memory of someone who inspired you
- Someone whose life makes a difference
- A friend or family member facing hearing loss
- An ALDA member who touched your life
Your tribute gift directly supports ALDA’s mission, including:
- Resources and peer support for people living with late-deafened hearing loss
- ALDAcon scholarships that open doors for new members.
- Accessibility, outreach, and advocacy efforts
- Community programs that bring us together
This season, help us continue building a welcoming place where no one faces hearing loss alone. Your generosity, in any amount, makes a real impact.
Give the gift of hope. Give the gift of connection. Give the gift of ALDA. To DONATE, go to https://alda.org/alda-donation/ If you are not yet a member of ALDA, you can join by going to https://alda.org/membership/
ALDAwarmly,
Diane McDonagh
ALDA President
*A donation any time before 12/31/25 is appreciated
