Giving. Growing. Gathering.
FY2024 by the numbers.
*What this means
Field-of-interest funds equip donors to support a cause they care deeply about in a flexible, but highly impactful way. With this 51% increase compared to FY2023, that’s a lot of flexibility and impact. If you want to financially support a charitable passion in broad terms – such as education, healthcare, LGBTQ+ causes, the environment, or youth – in a way that isn’t bound to a specific organization, while utilizing the expertise of ACF, field-of-interest funds let you do just that, and in as broad or as narrow terms as you decide (see The Fund for Arlington Arts as an example).
*What this means
In Arlington, for a household with 2 working adults and 2 children, this is what the adults must collectively earn to cover basic needs (food, housing, childcare, etc.). With thousands of essential workers making a fraction of that, and a drastic shortage of deeply affordable housing, many families who make Arlington livable simply cannot afford to live here themselves.
