Supporting ARC’s Mission
Because of supporters like you, cost is never a barrier for an ARC student, with many students participating for free and the average student paying less than $1/day. With 80% of our spending going directly to programming, your gift helps make ARC’s multi-year program possible and advances our vision that all youth are stewards of their own future, their communities, and the environment.
Monthly gifts and legacy gifts give ARC the most stability to plan future programs. See more ways to give below, or contact Heather David | Director of Development if you’d like to get more involved.

Give Appreciated Stock or Other Assets
Donating appreciated stocks, mutual funds, or bonds is a simple way to support ARC. If you’ve held them for more than a year, you may be able to deduct their full value and avoid capital gains tax on the appreciation. To get started or to get transfer instructions, contact Heather David | Director of Development. Please let us know about your gift so we can thank you and send a receipt.
Give from your IRA (Qualified Charitable Distribution)
If you’re 70½ or older, you can give directly from your IRA to ARC through a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD). A QCD can count toward your Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) and isn’t included in your taxable income. Ask your IRA provider to send the gift directly to ARC, using the mailing address and Tax ID above, and let us know it’s coming. Please check with your financial or tax advisor to see if this option is right for you.
Give a legacy gift
You can include ARC in your will or estate plan, or name ARC as a beneficiary of a retirement account or life insurance policy. A legacy gift helps ensure that future students can join ARC at no cost for years to come. To learn more, contact Heather David | Director of Development.
