Join Arkansas Advocates for Children and Families’ Giving Circle.

Provide AACF with the dependable support we need to do our most important work.

Since we were founded in October 1977, our mission has been to advocate for effective public policies that we know will help children, their families and our communities have the resources and opportunities they need to thrive.  We remain committed to providing lawmakers timely, rigorously investigated and understandable research, encouraging them to consider children in every bill they author and every vote they cast.

To build on our successes, Arkansas Advocates has an immediate and long term need to delve more deeply into areas that will help us now and in future legislative sessions.  Contributions and commitments from our most loyal and generous supporters allows us to expand our outreach, conduct more extensive research to prepare for opportunities around emerging policy areas, offer opportunities to educate and engage decision makers and voters, and directly advocate for the policies we know will provide better opportunities for children and families and strengthen our communities.  

AACF’s Giving Circle is made up of individual supporters who pledge unrestricted gifts of at least $1,000 annually.  These gifts not only make a huge difference in our ability to prepare for and respond to things that happen during and between legislative sessions, they give us the peace of mind that comes with knowing longer term projects may be undertaken.   Giving Circle membership comes with its benefits, too.  Follow this link to read about the Giving Circle membership levels and their benefits.

As a Giving Circle member, you will help our team stay on top of issues facing Arkansas families and, with proven research, remind lawmakers why it’s in our state’s best long-term interest to protect and expand investments in programs that work best for Arkansas – investments in quality pre-k and K-12 education, services that build safer communities, systems that yield the best results for those in the foster care or juvenile justice systems, access to affordable healthcare, and other opportunities that help families succeed.

Become a member of AACF’s Giving Circle today and help us provide decision makers and their constituents with facts that will strengthen Arkansas today, tomorrow and for decades to come.
