EVERY DOLLAR DONATED to the Society supports our emergency assistance, education, and community enhancement programs. In 2010, the Society received almost $6.6 million in donations. During the same year, AFAS provided over $18.3 million in total support to Airmen and their families. That results in a 277% ratio of support to contributions. Fortunately, loan paybacks and investment portfolio income allow the Society to satisfy 100% of emergency assistance requirements and fund the education and community enhancement programs. This additional income also enables the Society to pay for the conservative operating costs necessary to run the organization.
