Founded in 2008 as the philanthropic arm of AMA Houston, AMA Gives Back has provided more than $150,000 in grants to Houston non-profits. Grant recipients can use the funds to help with a wide variety of marketing initiatives to promote their causes – allowing them to fulfill their missions and provide support and services to Houston and its surrounding communities.
Each year, AMA Houston distributes a portion of our chapter’s net income in the form of AMA Gives Back Grants. While the grant program has long been the cornerstone of this program, AMA Gives Back also provides members the opportunity to donate their time and talent in support of non-profit organizations.
THE DEADLINE TO APPLY IS MAY 31, 2024, AT 11:59 PM CT.

Donate Your Expertise
Giving your time and talent can make a powerful, lasting impact. Each year, AMA Gives Back matches mentors with our grant recipients to help them make the most of their grant funds.
Do you have a special marketing talent or passion and want to be matched up with a non-profit?
Additionally, AMA Houston participates in a Day of Giving each year where we work with a selected non-profit to help maximize their service projects. Day of Giving projects in the past have included meal prep with the Houston Food Bank, packing lunches for Kids Meals, and creating holiday kits for the children of BridgeYear. To learn more and participate in our annual Day of Giving, please email info@amahouston.org.
