Congratulations Debbie Wright! You are AMA Baltimore’s January 2012 Volunteer of the Month. This is our time to share your amazing contributions to our chapter with the world!
Debbie is one of our longest standing members, as she joined the Baltimore chapter in 1983 (sheesh, she was practically in diapers). Her loyalty and commitment shines through as she serves on the membership committee. Each month, Debbie is responsible for membership retention and engagement, and judging by our solid and growing membership numbers, she does an excellent job. In addition, she manages the Marketing Career Network job database for AMA Baltimore.
In her spare time, Debbie is a marketing manager for FedChoice Federal Credit Union managing events, advertising efforts, and marketing materials to prospects and customers. On top of it ALL, she finds time to help her daughter select a college and enjoy Katy Perry concerts with her husband (no, we’re not kidding, she is a very avid Katy Perry fan).
Debbie – thank you for everything you do for this chapter and we all look forward to continued success.

The Baltimore AMA was proud to honor Afnan Idris, Professional Development Chair for Salisbury University’s AMA chapter, volunteer of the month in September. Afnan does an excellent job connecting other local collegiate AMA chapters with the Baltimore chapter through event planning and social media. Even though she is our youngest board member, she has proved to be a natural networker by securing dynamic speakers to plan and promote successful events for her local chapter.
In addition to her work with the AMA, Afnan is the emerging face of student business leaders at Salisbury University, with award winning pursuits of professional development and leadership skills. With work experience in the Middle East, pursuing a dual major in Marketing/Information Systems, and a minor in Spanish, Afnan is creating the new standard of being a well-rounded student. Recently, she has developed a new Professional Development Series through AMA Salisbury to assist fellow students to enhance personal development, strengthen leadership, and expand their networks.
Congrats Afnan! We’re proud to call your our own. Keep up the great work!
The AMA Baltimore hosted two volunteer appreciation events this year to reward our hard-working board members and volunteers. The first was at Taverna Corvino in November 2010 and our latest and greatest event was in mid-June at Matsuri.
We know how hard our volunteers work to keep the AMA Baltimore running like clockwork and every now and then we like to all get together to socialize and have some tongue-in-cheek awards.
The 2010-2011 year was Debbie’s 25th year with our chapter, so of course we had to celebrate with something fancy. In a corporate setting she may have received a nice watch, but the AMA went “overboard” with this gold clock. Read the rest of this entry »
