During the holiday season, \u00a0we take time to celebrate the causes, organizations, and projects we\u2019re passionate about. Autodesk helps its customers make a better world, and we support our employees in giving back to the organizations that are important to them. One way we do that is by having Autodesk Foundation match nonprofit donations up to $3,000 per year. Every day we have an opportunity to make a positive impact on the community and the world around us. Here are a few ways our colleagues are making that happen&#8230; <strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-4575\" src=\"https:\/\/adsknews.autodesk.com\/app\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Ally-Greer-1024x653.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"653\" srcset=\"https:\/\/adsknews.autodesk.com\/app\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Ally-Greer-1024x653.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/adsknews.autodesk.com\/app\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Ally-Greer-300x191.jpg 300w, https:\/\/adsknews.autodesk.com\/app\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Ally-Greer-700x446.jpg 700w, https:\/\/adsknews.autodesk.com\/app\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Ally-Greer.jpg 1170w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>Ally Greer, Marketing Manager<\/strong>&#8211; This December I\u2019m giving to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.abta.org\/\">American Brain Tumor Association<\/a>, an organization that funds research and helps support brain tumor patients and their families. Earlier this year, my cousin was diagnosed with a brain tumor and tragically lost his battle within weeks of it beginning.

I gave because every donation can help save up to 3 lives! Earlier in the year, a co-worker&#8217;s daughter was diagnosed with leukemia. I made a commitment to be a more active platelet donor and will be ending the year with 21 platelet donations. Luckily our new Portland office is right up the street from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redcross.org\/\">Red Cross<\/a> blood bank making it convenient to go after work. &nbsp; <strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4574\" src=\"https:\/\/adsknews.autodesk.com\/app\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Scott-Herren.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"974\" height=\"577\" srcset=\"https:\/\/adsknews.autodesk.com\/app\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Scott-Herren.png 974w, https:\/\/adsknews.autodesk.com\/app\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Scott-Herren-300x178.png 300w, https:\/\/adsknews.autodesk.com\/app\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Scott-Herren-700x415.png 700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 974px) 100vw, 974px\" \/>Scott Herren, Chief Financial Officer<\/strong>\u2013 This year I will be supporting the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.southfloridahaitiproject.org\/\">South Florida Haiti Project<\/a>, which is an organization I got involved with more than 10 years ago.
