Fundraising and Educating Your Community
Incredible individuals and groups from around the country and the world have come up with creative ways to raise awareness - and money - for the people ARC serves. Their work has directly benefitted survivors of war and disaster.
Create your own fundraising page to raise awareness and money.
To learn more about how you can help, check out our Community Involvement Kit. 
If you need help thinking of an idea or a way that you can get your community involved for survivors of war or disaster, we want to help. Contact Jenna Moeger at JennaM@ARChq.org.
