When families move into AHC's affordable housing communities, we like to give them Welcome Bags filled with essential household supplies to say "welcome home."

Volunteers will purchase all the items to fill the bags. A large, sturdy, reusable tote bag with a square or rectangle base is ideal. For purposes of hygiene and dignity, we ask that all items are new, unopened and unused. Please make sure items fit into the bags and limit your donations to the items listed below. We do not have the space or capacity to accept other items.

Do you have a soft spot in your heart for old buildings.  Taking care of our 100 years old church has to be a labor of love, because everything is a Pandora's box.  We always have a long list of "honey do's".  Right now, top of the list is to weatherize several window AC units, repair a few screens, repair and repaint some door frame trim, repair one toilet that leaks, another that takes forever and a day to flush...carefully pick apart a soft spot under the carpet to investigate its cause and possible remedies and repairs... repair steam damage to old plaster over brick wall, replace a ceiling light fixture...whatever your skill set, we need you!  This is also a great opportunity for a father-son or family activity or a group.  

We do not want to do fundraising on the backs of the people we are here to serve.  We need help attracting and involving the general public at our events.  This could be a s simple as making and posting flyers and yard signs or as technical as designing social media campaigns or finding grantors whose passions align with our mission and writing simple grants to fund operations, or expand capacity.
