What Is The American Marketing Association Foundation?

The American Marketing Association Foundation (AMAF) maximizes marketing for the betterment of society. 

This is accomplished by:

• Investing in the growth and use of nonprofit and social marketing knowledge;
• Supporting appropriate community outreach efforts; and
• Acknowledging academic and practitioner marketing excellence.

We work in partnerships and other strategic collaborations with the AMA, AMA chapters, marketing practitioners and academics, and scores of voluntary and community organizations.

The American Marketing Association Foundation gives members of the marketing profession a way to make a difference through the power of marketing by:

• Investing in the Growth and Use of Nonprofit and Social Marketing Knowledge
  Offering marketing capabilities, knowledge and resources, the AMAF helps make nonprofits more effective in their efforts to build awareness, impact and donor support. The AMAF is building a network of support services include referrals, dissemination of best practices, publications, education and training, peer exchanges, mentoring, as well as electronic tools and resources.
  
  
• Supporting Appropriate Community Outreach Efforts
  Awarding scholarships and grants to AMA chapters, marketing students, and educators from backgrounds and geographies that are currently underrepresented in the marketing profession.
  
  
• Acknowledging Academic and Practitioner Marketing Excellence
  Honoring and communicating the achievements of marketing leaders.

Uniquely positioned within an industry that touches all others, the AMAF identifies opportunities to leverage excellence in marketing to reach a larger common good. Our work is funded by those who believe that solid business practices and innovative marketing strategies have the power to positively influence issues of importance, both nationally and internationally.
