Your Gift in Action
Every dollar given to The Arc of Adams County goes directly to work for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families. Here’s what your gift makes possible:
$25
connects a family to the information they need including covering the staff time to research resources, make referrals, and follow up so no one has to navigate the system alone.
$50
helps train a caregiver or educator on disability rights and inclusion and supports the preparation and delivery of one community training session.
$100
gives a person with IDD a voice in a room that hasn’t always included them such as funding non-attorney advocacy support to help someone navigate a system, appeal a decision, or assert their rights.
$250
moves policy by helping fund The Arc’s presence at the Capitol, where our advocates speak up for the people and families who can’t always be in the room themselves.
Every Dollar
Creates Impact
The Power of Monthly Giving
Big change doesn’t happen all at once. It happens in the steady, consistent work of showing up, month after month, for people who need it most. That’s exactly what monthly giving makes possible
For the people we serve
When people come to The Arc of Adams County in a moment of crisis: a benefit suddenly cut, a job lost, a housing situation unravelling our ability to respond quickly depends on having reliable resources in place. One-time gifts are meaningful and appreciated, but it’s the predictable, recurring support of monthly donors that allows us to maintain staffing, sustain programs, and say yes when someone calls for help. Monthly giving is what turns good intentions into consistent impact
For you as a donor
Monthly giving isn’t just better for us, it’s often a smarter, more satisfying way to give. A gift of $20 a month may feel more manageable than $240 all at once, but the impact is identical. You stay connected to the mission throughout the year rather than in a single transaction, and many donors tell us they feel more invested in outcomes when they give this way. Your contributions are also easier to track for tax purposes, with a single annual summary rather than multiple receipts to manage.
Most of all, monthly giving means you’re not just a donor, you’re a partner. You’re part of what makes The Arc of Adams County sustainable, responsive, and present for Adams County families every single day.
