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.

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.
