Each year, the AAMA community comes together to honor a leader who has gone above and beyond in service to our industry—and this year, we celebrate Joe Camarota of Alpha-Omega Sales as our 2025 AAMA Lifetime Achievement Award recipient.

But this journal is about more than honoring business excellence. It’s about changing lives.

Through the American Amusement Machine Charitable Foundation (AAMCF), this annual ad journal becomes a powerful vehicle for good—raising funds for organizations that bring hope, healing, and joy to children and families who are facing unimaginable challenges.

We are proud to support three extraordinary partner organizations:

Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago, where top-tier medical teams provide life-saving treatment to children when they need it most.
KEEN USA (Kids Enjoy Exercise Now) creates a safe, fun, and inclusive space for children with disabilities to play, exercise, and thrive.
Sunrise Association gives children with cancer and their siblings the chance to experience the joy of summer camp, completely free of charge.

These organizations do the work we all pray we never need. We support them in the hope that your child, your niece or nephew, your grandchild, never has to walk through those doors.

But for the families who do, your support is everything. It’s medical care, laughter, moments of normalcy, and above all, hope.

This year, we’ve set an ambitious goal: to raise $275,000 through the 2025 AAMCF Charity Lifetime Ad Journal. Every dollar helps. Every ad placed is a tribute to Joe and a gift to a family in need.

Please join us. Celebrate Joe Camarota’s legacy. And help us build a future where every child gets the care, comfort, and compassion they deserve.

Together, we make our change matter.
