Your MDRT membership. Your chance.

Have you been wondering how you can make an impact on our world? Are you searching for a purpose?

In our business as financial advisors, we do so much to help so many. Many of us, though, want to do more.

Our local communities need leaders like us — leaders who get results and create change to make the world a little bit better today than it was yesterday.

Since 1959, we’ve given millions of dollars in grants spread across nearly every country. In 2016, the MDRT Foundation awarded 216 grants totaling more than $1.2 million to fund charitable programs in 32 countries.

MDRT Gives Day

Now it’s time to make sure all of our efforts will make the impact we want, and the MDRT Foundation is leading the way for all our members. On November 8, MDRT Gives Day,  a new online global day of giving,  offers you a chance to help!

Give online to the MDRT Foundation. 

MDRT members volunteered at Give Kids the World Village in Florida.

Every dollar raised will go to our global grant programs. This means children will get shoes. Families will drink clean water. Others will get wheelchairs, medical help or maybe a dying wish granted.

All of those people need us to support MDRT Gives Day. This is your membership, your Foundation, your chance to be an agent of change. Whether you have been involved with the Foundation for years or are new to MDRT, I ask you to give on November 8 to ensure those needs are met. Take a moment and mark November 8 on your calendar as the day to give.  

On that day, the world will be better because of what MDRT and the Foundation will do to assist communities in helping those who need it most!
