    Additional Options for AAFP Members

    As an AAFP member, you can easily support the charitable arm of the Academy—the AAFP Foundation—through one of the following convenient member giving options:

    Membership Renewal Donation

    A donation to the AAFP Foundation at the time of membership renewal is the easiest and fastest way to support your Foundation as well as Chapter programs! It's as easy as checking "yes" on your dues statement or donating online. Membership renewal donations are the largest single source of contributions to the Foundation each year. Your participation matters!

    Donate Your Professional Honoraria

    Donating professional speaking, writing, or per diem honoraria is a creative way to support the AAFP Foundation's many activities and programs. Whether through personal generosity or encouraged by your company, honoraria gifts significantly impact a charity.

    Many Academy members enhance their annual giving and avoid unwanted taxable income by sending their honoraria directly to the AAFP Foundation. To ensure the future of programs you care about, send your honoraria to the AAFP Foundation at the address listed at the top of the page.
