Support New Afterschool Programs in Baltimore! Donate Supplies to Help Local Students Thrive
Affordable Homes & Communities (AHC) is excited to launch new afterschool and summer enrichment programs at our Baltimore apartment communities—and we need your help to set our students up for success!
AHC is a nonprofit affordable housing provider that believes Housing + Education = Success. Our Resident Services team supports youth and families by offering free programming right where they live. As we expand into Baltimore, we're building out our learning spaces with donated supplies for hands-on activities, creative expression, academic support, and social-emotional growth.
We’re currently collecting new or gently used items to stock our classrooms and "comfy corners"—places where kids can feel safe, supported, and inspired to learn.
High-Need Items Include:
Arts – Paint supplies, coloring books, sketch paper, glue sticks, stickers, and more (please, no glitter!)
STEM – Science kits, puzzles, robotic toys, and math games
Literacy – Books that reflect Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, Belonging, and Accessibility, student dictionaries, pencils, rulers, etc.
Socio-emotional Learning/IEP/504 Supports – Fidget toys, stress balls, soft pillows, rugs, squishmallows
Physical Play – Soccer balls, jump ropes, frisbees, hula hoops
We're also seeking costumes for imaginative play and fun!
