Welcome to the AACC

A Catalyst for Transformation

Human Services to Help Our Community!

With a primary focus on socioeconomically disadvantaged youth, adults, and families, the Ann Arbor Community Center provides programs and services that promote self-reliance, social and economic well-being, diversity, and community involvement. We combine our local volunteers and funding from our local community to provide high-quality programs, information, and services such as AACC Closets, Family Mentoring, food distribution, and so much more.

Through the years, the AACC has appreciated the support from Washtenaw United Way, Washtenaw County, other area organizations, and thousands of individuals and families. Please consider donating financially to assist the AACC’s mission by clicking here.

Nothing is like 100 years ago. And, The AACC is ever-changing to deliver current needs to those that we serve.

We help persons who are assigned Community Service to help others
through on-site “jobs” for persons who need assistance
through the Courts and probation officials.

All of our deliverables are completed through new means unlike even 5 years ago.
Please call 734.662.3128 to receive direction.
Also you may email us right from our website!

We begin interviews for Thanksgiving and Christmas in September
but we will accept applications all year long.
Click here to fill out an application. Washtenaw County residents only.

Celebrating 101 Years of Service to the Ann Arbor Community!!

The Wendy Fund

Help Us Help Others during the Winter Heating Season!
Your donations to the Wendy Fund will go toward helping families with heat, electricity, and other utilities during the winter.

It may not be cold now, but you can still donate now so we will be ready when winter comes again.

Donate Today!

Designate “the Wendy Fund” when you donate and help keep our Washtenaw County families warm and safe during this difficult time.

One day a lady named Wendy called the AACC. She was almost fussing at herself when she said, “I’ve been meaning to contribute! Now I’m donating because I don’t want folks to not have heat/electricity. Can you tell me how to do that?”

The AACC shared her sincere desire that no one be cold. To have no child miss a class because their computer couldn’t be charged. And we placed her donation into a program that we now call “the Wendy Fund.” 

A family was blessed by this fund just recently through the work of Mark Howson, Julie Burdick, and the AACC! And twenty-five families have been helped since that one person, Wendy, made an effort to draw attention to this very real need in Washtenaw County! 

Thank you, Wendy. If you would like to donate to this fund and other programs at the AACC, please click the button above or click here.
