Thank you to our Volunteers at the KAET_TV
Pledge Drive!
Once again, special thanks go out to our volunteers
at the KAET-TV Pledge Drive on June 7. Nine volunteers from the AZ
Valley of the Sun Chapter joined together to provide telephone services
for collection of pledge drives for Channel 8. This was a fun
networking event among the volunteers and a great fund-raiser for the
KAET-TV Public Broadcasting Services organization. The volunteers
helped to raise over $10,000 during the pledge drive. IMA
volunteers were recognized and much appreciated for their time and
volunteer work by KAET-TV. The volunteers continued to network
following the event with lunch at P.F. Chang’s. Please see our
press release at

Thank you to
our Volunteers at the Anglers United Fund Raiser!
Special thanks go out to our
volunteers at the Anglers United 1st Annual Barbecue held
on May 7 at the Pera Club. Three volunteers from the AZ Valley
of the Sun Chapter provided accounting services for registration,
casino events, prizes, raffles, live and silent auctions, cash
collections, and credit card processing. This was a fun event
and a great fund-raiser for the AZ Anglers United (an organization
committed to improving Arizona’s fishing). IMA volunteers were
recognized for their contributions in the Anglers United program.

We
also received this thank you for our assistance with the Arizona Bighorn
Sheep Auction:

IMA
Volunteers at the Arizona Bighorn Sheep Auction
Once again, IMA Valley of the Sun volunteers
helped at the Arizona Bighorn Sheep Auction, an organization dedicated
to the conservation and population enhancement of bighorn sheep in
Arizona. On March 1st, volunteers spent an evening of
accepting credit card transactions for auction purchases, exchanging
cash for checks or credit card transactions, and keeping track of the
auction sales prices. The event was a five-hour fund raising event with
raffles, auctions, and cowboy steak dinner for all attendees.
The Arizona Desert Bighorn Sheep Society thanks
the IMA volunteers for donating their time for this event!

Fall Food Drive - THANKS!
The Fall Food
Drive was a huge success! The IMA sponsored the Interfaith
Cooperative Ministries (www.icmaz.org)
by contributing various non-perishable food items. We
collected donations of $110, which was used at Costco to buy
canned foods. In total, we donated 174 cans of food and 22
packages of various food items. And, of course, there were
cookies for the kids!
The Interfaith
Cooperative Ministries were very appreciative and thankful for
the donations.
Thank you to
everyone that contributed to this worthwhile event!
