Celebrating Giving Tuesday, the American Marketing Association Foundation will highlight community members and their work on Tuesday, November 28
Chicago, IL—Starting in November and going through the end of 2023, the American Marketing Association (AMA) Foundation will be raising awareness and funds to elevate marketing visionaries, empower future generations, inspire a more diverse industry and ensure marketing research impacts public good.

Giving our time, effort, and resources to help reimagine the communities we’re a part of, to make them more reflective of who we are, is how we create change,” said AMA CEO, Bennie F. Johnson. “By being part of the global community on Giving Tuesday, we are working toward creating that positive impact and making the world a better place through our work.”
