These are all common concerns of families, and the inspiration behind the development of The Arc's Endowment Fund. The fund is designated to provide a means for helping families plan for the future of their sons/daughters with developmental disabilities.
The money that is contributed to the Endowment is invested for The Arc by the Community Foundation of Frederick County. The investment proceeds will provide future funding for The Arc, while the actual funds in the Endowment account will remain untouched. This will allow The Arc to ensure that a greater number of families who need our assistance receive that help in a timely manner. While The Arc's Support Coordinators are able to help many families that call us, often times families and individuals who request our help are placed on Waiting Lists and the mostly likely people to receive immediate help are those in a crisis.
The Arc's Endowment Fund has reached $1,000,000!
A sincere THANK YOU to all of our contributors.
We are excited to add more to the fund -- please continue to contribute.
