Giving Tuesday is coming up this week.  Now, and as always, your contribution to our Missouri Chapter of the TAA is vital to help us continue to serve our area families.

As we no longer have a member/dues structure, the TAA does not continue to reflect any money directly to our local chapter. 

We depend solely on donations.

 Any donation made to the TAA goes only to the national organization.

You can now contribute directly to our Missouri Chapter online, through a link on the TAA website:   Tourette.org 

by following these steps:

 – Scroll down the Homepage to “Find My Local Chapter”(lower left) and click the “Learn More” link (DO NOT click the “Donate” link on the upper right toolbar of the Homepage.  This will send a donation only to TAA, and not our Missouri Chapter.)

– Under “Find a Local Chapter”, “State Results”,  click the link for “Missouri Chapter”

– Click the “Make a Donation” link(upper right) and follow instructions.

***  You may still also donate by writing a check to: TAA/MO Chapter, Inc. 

And mailing it to:

TAA/MO Chapter, Inc.

3646 Dover Place

St. Louis, MO   63116

Your ongoing contributions are what keeps our MO Chapter going !!

Thank You in advance for your support of our important organization.

Gratefully,

TAA/MO Chapter Board
