Greenvale, NY, February 16, 2024 - In a compelling outreach, Allen Weisberg, the esteemed leader of Apple Industries, has passionately called upon the amusement and entertainment community to rally behind the American Amusement Machine Charitable Foundation's (AAMCF) Honor Roll. This initiative, as Weisberg articulates, is a golden opportunity for individuals and businesses alike to "give back to the children" who embody the future of both our industry and the broader society.
The AAMCF Honor Roll stands as a testament to the philanthropic spirit of the amusement and entertainment industry, offering a structured way for contributors to support the commendable efforts of charities focused on child welfare. Among these beneficiaries are the renowned Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago, Kids Enjoy Exercise Now (KEEN), Sunrise Association, and a host of other organizations dedicated to enhancing the lives of children through education, health care, and scientific research.
Allen Weisberg's message is not just a call to action but a reminder of the profound impact that the amusement and entertainment industry can have on societal well-being. "The Honor Roll offers you or your company the opportunity to give back to those who have built and continue to support our industry by playing," says Weisberg. He extends a heartfelt thank you in advance to future donors and expresses eagerness to celebrate their contributions on the donor wall at the Amusement Expo International.
To underline the importance of the AAMCF Honor Roll, Weisberg shares a personal anecdote - a picture of Jacob, a young and inspirational speaker from the Annual Meeting, that he keeps as a constant reminder of the initiative's core mission. Jacob's story is a powerful motivator for Weisberg and serves as a poignant reminder of the difference that the industry's fundraising efforts can make in the lives of children like him.
The invitation to join the AAMCF Honor Roll is more than a call for donations; it's a call to be part of a meaningful movement that extends beyond business interests to touch the lives of children in profound ways. As the amusement and entertainment industry prepares for the Amusement Expo International, there's a shared anticipation for the positive change that the collective contributions to the Honor Roll will bring.
In embracing the AAMCF Honor Roll, the industry does not only support the invaluable work of its charity partners but also reinforces a legacy of compassion, generosity, and communal support that will surely echo for many years to come.
