Check out the reaction from these ladies. They were bubbling over with excitement! One of them told us she had been working for tips since she was a teenager and always wished she would get a large tip like this one. 

Tip #64 and #65 were made possible by the incredible generosity of the kind-hearted individuals attending the 2024 ASAE: The Center for Association Leadership Annual Meeting. Their collective donation of $2,000 in just one minute was a game-changer!

A big thank you to the following people and businesses for making this happen with their time and money: Andy Steggles and Insight Guide for inspiring others to donate at the end of my session at the ASAE Annual Meeting, Sean Soth and his company, Professionals for Association Revenue (PAR) for sponsoring half of this tip, and the following donors who paid for the rest: Cathi Eifert Horner, CAE, Rob Wenger, Moira Edwards, Douglas Morris, Jim Meyers, and our “Tipping Titans”- Brad Sundgren, Kelly Stancliff and her husband Eric, and Mike Chamberlain, who also accompanied our newest volunteers, Dylan Burkhart and Brian Shepard on this second drop with Cathi. The Big Fat Tip is a community effort and would only happen with these fine folks.

Sadly, most surprises we experience as adults are bad ones, and our days blend into weeks, which blend into months and years, making those unfortunate memories stand out the most. Creating these positive, memorable moments has a ripple effect that creates hope for others and can help counter all the negative energy many face daily. 

Thank you for helping us push positive energy out into our world!
