Get 10 AA miles for every $1 donation to fight cancer. Minimum donation of $25. Great way to get miles, help a good cause, get a tax receipt* and keep your AA miles alive!

For a donation of $25 or more, American Airlines will award you 10 AAdvantageŽ bonus miles for each dollar you give to Stand Up To Cancer.

*For charitable deduction purposes, each mile is valued at 3 cents per mile. The receipt of miles may reduce the tax deductibility of your donation.Offer valid on contributions made online at www.SU2C.org/americanairlines. Minimum $25 donation required. Mileage cap for a 12-month period is 600,000. Bonus miles do not count toward elite-status qualification. Please allow up to eight weeks for the bonus miles to be posted to your account. Donations can only be accepted in U.S. dollars. Donations made in connection with AAdvantageŽ bonus miles program are not refundable.

Shouldn't it be valued at how much they sell them at?

There are much simpler ways of keeping miles alive.
