Dear Aikido Community:
For the past 5 decades, Yamada Sensei and the New York Aikikai have had a profound effect on thousands of people worldwide. As a gesture of deep appreciation, the USAF will present a donation to Yamada Sensei and the NYA in celebration of their 50th anniversary.
We hope that those of you who are a part of this expansive Aikido community will participate in this fund raiser. Donations to the USAF can be made online through PayPal. The USAF will present its donation at the USAF summer camp banquet dinner. All credit cards are accepted and you do not need a PayPal account to donate. No checks, cash or money orders are being accepted at this time, so please visit this link to proceed: Donation
A list of the donors will be included in the “happy 50th anniversary” card. The deadline for making a donation is July 15th, 2014.
Please spread the word to anyone who might want to contribute to this exciting project. And thank you in advance for your donation.
Sincerely yours,
Laura Pavlick
Director of Operations
