Thank you so much to everyone who helped us and prayed for us as we set our childcare program into place!   If you would like to help us   we do have quite a few needs.     Your donation  is tax deductible.     Please call (907)248-0808 or email mfritz@avfrc.org for more information.   Thank you!  

Prayer needs:     Please pray for our childcare program, that God bless the children, families, and staff.   Pray with us that we provide services that meet the needs of families and share the good news of Christ with those that God would call.   Pray that our children have joy and peace as they are learning and making friends at our center.   Pray for God to send us a full enrollment.   Please help us pray for God's financial provision and anything else that you feel called to pray for, thank you!   Also, please pray for Beacon Hill, our church's temporary housing program for single mothers with children, and for New Direction Resource Center, where teens can receive help and support to complete their high school requirements and graduate.

Material needs:   Our small program would really benefit from installing a fence around our playground, to keep the children in and the moose out!  We have a cost estimate of $3,990 to fully fence the playground.  If you are looking for a good cause to support, your donation is tax deductible and would really benefit our children!  

Winter is here, and we could really use donations of new or almost new snow pants and winter coats (size 4,5, 6, 6x),  hats and gloves (washable), and snow boots (size 8, 9, 10, 11) for both boys and girls.  Many of our families are on a limited income and would really appreciate your donation!  

Our carpets in our two classrooms are in need of replacement.  We have an estimate for $6,000 to replace the carpet and repair the flooring.  Any size donation would help us.  If you would like to help out, this would really benefit the children.

Scholarships:   It is very difficult for single parents with one income to pay the childcare assistance co-payment of $125 per month.   If you feel led to contribute to a one time or ongoing support for single parents for tuition help, a donation of any amount would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you so very much and may God richly bless you!   MaryEllen and staff of AVFRC
