Grants/Special Recognition

Each year creative professionals exhibit corporate social responsibility and personal goodwill and philanthropy by donating talent to causes that better our communities or help provide for the less fortunate. Our skills are unique and in great demand because marketing and communication can make or break a campaign or organization.

As part of its mission, AMCP fosters and supports the efforts of marketing and communication professionals who contribute their unique talents to public service and charitable organizations. Each year, the efforts of generous marketing and communication professionals are acknowledged through grants to the organizations that they help. In 2007, AMCP contributed over $20,000 for marketing and communication materials in the names of our members. So far in 2008, AMCP has contributed another $20,000.
