Letter of gratitude to ARC donors:
Assistance & Resource Center, Inc. has been overwhelmed by the unprecedented generosity shown to ARC by both local donors and regional/national grant funders and foundations. So many of our community households have been impacted by the stresses of the unknown as we all travel through this unplanned journey known as COVID-19. For current clients and for numerous potential future client households, the financial challenges they are/will face are real and will be with them for some time. Your gifts given during this time will be shared with those in need. As is the ARC policy, all requests for help are verified and in a timely manner, actual financial support is directed to the landlord, utility provider, car repair shop, etc. on behalf of the client. Ninety eight cents of every dollar received by ARC is given out in client assistance.
We thank you for your financial gifts as well as the confidence you have shown in Assistance & Resource Center, Inc. as a provider of care, compassion, and help during this critical time of need.
On behalf of the ARC Board of Directors,
Sharon Schulze, Board Chair
Assistance & Resource Center (ARC)
P.O. Box 223
River Falls, WI 54022
Underlying the entire mission of ARC is the continued generosity of area churches, providing financial & spiritual support, staff assistance and facility use. Thank you! Providers/vendors in both communities (utilities, landlords, car repair shops, grocery stores, etc.) help ARC meet client needs by their willingness to work with the client and ARC through challenging and often stressful situations. Thank you!
