Friends and Supporters,

​In the midst of challenging circumstances and the desire to keep everyone safe and healthy, we are hosting our Celebrate the Children Giving Campaign virtually this year. We hope that our generous community will consider the needs of the organizations and individuals that undoubtedly need our support.

This year’s fundraising goal is $100,000. We ask that you consider the value of family this year and the unique challenges that each is currently facing.  

We are excited to share our new video with you on September 30, when you will have an opportunity to donate to support children and families during this trying time.

Thank you for sharing in our vision and helping us carry out ACC's 100-year tradition of service and compassion.
