The AMTA Chapters have done an outstanding job this year supporting the Massage Therapy Foundation (MTF) in terms of special event fund raising and Dollar(s)-Per-Member contributions. To-date, Chapters have contributed $73,393 to the Foundation! We would like to thank all Chapters who have contributed and encourage the Chapters who have not yet participated to consider a gift before the end of the year.
