American Massage Therapy Association introduces National Sponsorship Program

(Evanston, IL - April 12, 2004) - The American Massage Therapy Association announces a new national sponsorship program in an effort to continue to generate non-dues revenue to support both present and future member programs and services. The AMTA Board of Directors approved the national sponsorship program at its October 2004 meeting and implementation begins this month.

“Our new sponsorship program was developed to foster our strategic focus of providing products and services to help the public and healthcare communities understand the value of massage delivered by AMTA members as a regular part of one’s healthy lifestyle”, stated Mary Beth Braun, President of AMTA.

Each sponsorship will be custom-designed to accommodate various budgets and will be attractive to both small and large businesses. Many of the sponsor opportunities will be tied to events including the National Convention, Council of Schools meetings and National Massage Therapy Awareness Week.

For information on the new national sponsorship program, visit our Web section on sponsorship or email us at sponsorship@amtamassage.org.
