Why Support the Campaign?
For over 50 years, the Association for Medical Imaging Management (AHRA) has been the premier professional organization that represents the voices of more than 5,000 medical imaging leaders in over 2,500 healthcare facilities. AHRA, aligned with its philanthropic arm the AHRA Education Foundation (EF), is proud to announce the Living Our Legacy Campaign.
This multi-year effort will allow for sustainable growth, foster innovation, and position AHRA to better support the professional advancement of its members. AHRA’s Living Our Legacy Campaign is inviting its stakeholders to come together and invest in empowering the current and future generations of medical imaging leaders.
Why Now?
AHRA recently conducted a comprehensive planning study that determined the current workforce challenges and rapidly changing technological environment have created a clear need to support those currently in the field and the next generations to come. Study respondents identified AHRA as being uniquely qualified to aid in navigating these transformational times and expressed overwhelming support for action to be taken now. More than 90% of AHRA stakeholders were supportive of launching an initiative to enable AHRA to build new and enhance existing relationships, as well as raise funds needed to support these efforts.
Who Can Participate in the Campaign?
Anyone with an interest in the future of the medical imaging management field is invited to participate in the campaign.
Is There a Minimum Contribution to Participate?
We are asking everyone to consider an investment that is meaningful to them and their companies. Support can be pledged over a five-year period, and paid annually, semi-annually, or quarterly, in accordance with each supporter’s ability and wishes. This flexibility may help in making a truly aspirational gift. There is no minimum amount to participate, and all commitments will be accepted and recognized appropriately. We understand that every financial commitment is a strategic decision in today’s business landscape, one that requires consideration and forethought. Every commitment, regardless of the amount, is appreciated.
When Does the Campaign Start?
The active fundraising period of the campaign is currently underway. AHRA leadership and the National Steering Committee (NSC) are in the process of contacting prospective supporters to share information and answer questions. If you are interested in supporting now, please contact a member of the NSC or email foundation@ahra.org.
