About Us

The Foundation’s mission, “Prevent fatalities and reduce injuries through traffic and travel awareness and safety education,” has strategically guided the Foundation since its incorporation. The Foundation provides programming in five states (Delaware, Maryland, Philadelphia Metro area and Wilkes Barre, Pennsylvania, Central and West New Jersey, and Southern Virginia including Washington, D.C.) and our corporate headquarters is located in Wilmington, Delaware.

Our knowledgeable staff members promote safety though community involvement, hands-on training and dynamic presentations using the latest technology. We offer a wide scope of educational programs with specific emphasis on AAA school safety patrols, school bus safety, child passenger safety, teen driving, distracted driving and senior mobility, to name a few.

As you click through our webpage, AAA.com/Foundation, it is our hope that you will gain an understanding of who we are and the many valuable traffic safety programs we offer. We are funded by the generous support of AAA members and the general public and we are dedicated to educating, training and raising the level of traffic and travel safety awareness for all.

Donor Privacy Policy for the Mid-Atlantic Foundation for Safety and Education
Our most important asset is our donors’ trust. We respect donor privacy by keeping personal and gift information secure and using it only as our donors and members would want us to. We also follow the tenants of the Donor Bill of Rights as supported by the Association of Fundraising Professionals. In addition, our policy states:

We safeguard, according to high standards of security and confidentiality, any information our members and donors share with us. We collect and use the personal information from our donors when it is voluntarily provided to us for internal purposes only and this information is never published. Personal information collected includes contact information such as name, address, telephone number and e-mail address, giving information, information on events attended, sponsorships provided, publications received and special requests for program information, and information provided by the donor in the form of comments and suggestions. This confidential information is kept on file for IRS purposes. Donor information is maintained in a secure database. It is used to analyze overall giving patterns in order to make more accurate budget projections, as well as to understand donors’ interests in our mission and to update them on the organization’s plans and activities. We will permit only a limited number of authorized employees, who are trained in the proper handling of donor information, to have access to that information. Employees who violate our Privacy Policy will be subject to our disciplinary process.

We will follow and comply with all PCI compliance requirements regarding credit card processing. We will not sell, rent or trade our donors’ names or personal information with any other entity, nor send mailings to our donors on behalf of other organizations. It is the policy of the Mid-Atlantic Foundation for Safety and Education to communicate with donors according to their expressed preferences whenever possible. We will discontinue or change the method used to contact any person upon that person’s oral or written request directed to our organization.
