Who we are, and how it came to be.
We are Family and Friends of the Crew and Passengers of ARIA 328.
In the fall of 2004 there were a series of events that occurred which
started an emotional journey. It started with a simple email from a
stranger with a heavy heart. The ARIA 328 Memorial Foundation is a
physical continuance of that journey.
The Foundation is managed and operated by Volunteers, 100% of your
donation goes toward the ARIA mission.
The ARIA 328 Memorial Foundation is an Ohio USA Nonprofit Foundation and
is exempt under section 501 (c) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code and is
recognized by the IRS as a public charity with a status under section 170
(b) (1) (A) (vi) of the Internal Revenue Code.
In addition to Monetary Donations the ARIA 328 Memorial Foundation is qualified to receive tax deductible
bequests, devises, transfers or gifts under section 2055, 2106 or 2522 of
