Since our inception, The ARO Foundation and our Athlete Ambassadors have received over 1000 requests from national charities and schools for financial donations and autographed items to be utilized for charitable fundraising initiatives. As a result, The Sign of Giving Program was created to assist other non-profit organizations with their fundraising needs.

To be considered for a donation through The Sign of Giving Program, an organization must be a registered non-profit organization, public charity or other tax-exempt organization as defined by the Internal Revenue Code. An IRS Determination Letter verifying certification as a tax-exempt 501[C] [3] or the organization's Federal Tax ID Number, must accompany each request. The Foundation will not support individual or non-charitable requests. All donations must be sent directly to the requesting organization's business address. Items will not be sent to individuals.

We are pleased to assist your organization's charitable request for an autographed sports memorabilia item through our Sign of Giving community outreach program.

We will soon be offering an online registration form which will allow you to become part of the Sign of Giving program. In the meantime, please download the Adobe Acobat version of this form and mail it to our office.
