Take the plunge!
Your donation will help provide relief to families in the Acre neighborhood struggling to put food on the table, pay the rent, and afford childcare. Because right now, the pressure is relentless — and the safety nets that families rely on are shrinking. Your donation today can make a real difference.
That’s why I’m asking you to “take the plunge” with CBA — by making a tax-deductible year-end donation today. Your gift will add stability and peace of mind. It will uplift our community in these difficult times.
You can help ensure that CBA provides what residents tell us they need most — whether by offering free after-school care, stocking our food pantry, or providing affordable housing.
Your tax deductible support also makes joyful community events like National Night Out possible — celebrations that build bonds and turn neighbors into friends.
Most importantly, your support ensures that every program we offer remains free, because cost should never be a barrier to opportunity, stability, or hope.
As the year comes to a close, families are facing impossible choices. We need your support more than ever to keep our programs strong, sustainable, and accessible to all.
So please — join us. Take the plunge. Make a gift today that uplifts Francy, Loli, and all those working to build a better Acre, no matter what we face as a community, or as a nation.
Giving is easy. You can make a one-time donation or become a monthly donor.
