Ways to Give
Achievement Centers for Children & Families depend on the community’s support to keep our many programs and services available to the families we serve. Eighty-six cents of every dollar goes directly back to our programs and your donation, in any amount, will help with the assistance needed for these programs.
Support Achievement Centers for Children & Families in a way that makes sense for you. Whether it is through a monetary contribution or donation of your time, your commitment will be making a difference in the lives of our community’s most underserved children and families.
Annual Fund
The Annual Fund is the backbone of our unrestricted fundraising efforts and supports the general operating expenses. In short, it helps to keep our lights on. Please consider making a one-time annual or monthly reoccurring tax-deductible gift to help children and families living in our community break the cycle of poverty through affordable education and family strengthening.
