What a week for our State Academies! 🎉

Together, our State Academies raised more than $68,000 during State Academy Fundraiser Week to support advocacy, education, and initiatives advancing the CAA profession at the state level.

Congratulations to this year’s top three State Academies:
🥇 Minnesota — 1st Place | $2,500 grant
🥈 Kansas — 2nd Place | $1,000 grant
🥉 Georgia — 3rd Place | $500 grant

Winners are determined by funds raised per member, not total dollars alone—meaning every donation and every member who participated helped their academy compete for the top spot.

Thank you to every State Academy that rallied its members, spread the word, and made this year’s fundraiser such a success—and to everyone who donated. Your support helps fuel the work happening across the country to strengthen State Academies and advance the CAA profession.

Congratulations, Minnesota, Kansas, and Georgia! 👏
