FAM is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization with the purpose of helping our members with financial, legal, health and career challenges though our Teammate Assistance Program (TAP). FAM raises money for TAP though membership dues, donations, fundraisers, and corporate sponsors. We use the money to financial support members in need, pay for support services and programs that directly benefit our members.
