AFSA, FOR WORTHY CHARITIES

“Taking care of our own” is not just a slogan with AFSA members; it is a core value. ​AFSA members “take care of their own” by participating in the AFSA International Charities Programs. The charities consist of programs to which members and non-members can donate funds to help enhance the quality of life for enlisted Airmen and their families and to maintain the Airmen Memorial Building “monument” that stands as a tribute to Airmen of yesterday, today, and tomorrow. Below is a synopsis of the programs.
