As the cold weather creeps in it’s a chilly reminder that we are tumbling quickly towards the end of the year. Amidst the celebrations and chaos that accompany this time, there’s one thing you don’t want to miss out on…. year-end 2013 charitable (and tax-deductible!) contributions. And Give to the Max Day on November 14th is poised to help the CAF Red Tail Squadron continue to soar towards our goals in 2014!

Give to the Max Day is a special one-day event for non-profits and schools in Minnesota – the home of our CAF Red Tail Squadron hangar and office. Online gifts raised on November 14th’s Give to the Max Day will have the opportunity to receive matching grants, helping to make your giving go further.

The CAF Red Tail Squadron’s Give to the Max Day event will focus on raising donations to fund a much-needed new propeller and flight controls for our P51 Mustang “Tuskegee Airmen,” our flying tribute to the brave men who overcame adversity to fight bravely in WWII, and continue to inspire future generations to RISE ABOVE. We need to raise approximately $26,000 in order to make it happen. Will you help?

Visit our special Give to the Max page to learn just how your contribution will help.  Making a donation during this special online event on November 14th will allow you plenty of time to add it to your list of 2013 charitable, tax-deductible contributions. Looks like a win win!

Stay warm and RISE ABOVE!
