"Commitment to Community" is one of AAA’s Core Values. This is evidenced by AAA Western and Central New York’s fundraising efforts to support local charities in the communities we serve.

AAA associates throughout Western New York, the Rochester region and Central New York give their time and talents to raise money and provide support. Known as the Associates' Council, this team of associates organizes events throughout the year that all associates can take part in, with the proceeds going to their respective charities. We are proud to announce the charities AAA will be supporting throughout 2013.

Do you remember when we began offering this free letter from Santa a few years ago, when we used to publish Going Places magazine? Our members loved it! Since we switched over to our new magazine, Member Connection, we've found that members are still been asking us for "the Santa letters."

In the next few days you will be receiving the Winter issue of Member Connection, a quarterly magazine published and produced exclusively for AAA members living in Western and Central New York.

Like Emergency Road Service, insurance, and the Show Your Card & Save discount program, Member Connection is another benefit of your AAA membership. In each issue, you'll find weekend getaway ideas, car care tips, and news about discounts and savings offered to AAA members.

In a recent survey, we asked AAA WCNY members about how they use Member Connection magazine. Our goal is to provide a magazine that is a helpful tool, one that enhances your experience as a AAA member. Here are a few featured comments from the responses:
