GiveMN logoWhen our P-51C Mustang and RISE ABOVE Traveling Exhibit are not out traveling across the country spreading the inspirational lessons of the Tuskegee Airmen at schools, air shows and other fun events, they call Minnesota home. And we are pleased to announce that once again we will be a part of GiveMN, a statewide fundraising initiative for schools and non-profit organization in Minnesota.

Thursday November 13 marks GiveMN’s Give to the Max Day 24-hour extravaganza of generosity. The organization’s efforts helped to raise over $17 million in 24 hours for Minnesota-based charities at last year’s event. This year, you can make your donation to the CAF Red Tail Squadron via the Give to the Max campaign on November 13, or schedule anytime after November 1.

Why donate on Give to the Max Day? Online gifts raised during the event will have the opportunity to receive matching grants, helping to make your giving go further!

Visit our Give to the Max page and select the specific program you would like to support. There are three options:

Help us maintain our inspirational P-51C Mustang aircraft!

Get the Six Principles of the Tuskegee Airmen into the hands of youth across the country!

Bring the inspirational legacy of the Tuskegee Airmen to a classroom in need!

Making a donation during this special online event on November 13 will also allow you plenty of time to add it to your list of 2014 charitable, tax-deductible contributions. Join us and RISE ABOVE!
