Donating to ADD

ADD gladly accepts donations of money and time.

Monetary Donations:

ADD is currently accepting donations for several causes.

General Operating Funds. The donation of funds to support ADD's general operations assists ADD in providing for the day to day needs of the people we support. Funds donated for general operating needs may be used to provide food, direct support and personal care items for the people we serve.

Client Needs Fund. Donations to the ADD Client Needs Fund are set aside to provide for special needs that are not covered by existing funding sources. Client Needs funds may only be accessed by a written request that must be approved by the Director of Services and ADD's Chief Executive Officer. Items typically funded through the Client Needs Fund include clothing and emergency assistance.

Dahlberg Infant and Toddler Recreation Fund. ADD is currently seeking funds to purchase large motor skill recreation equipment (for indoor use) and to build a playground specifically to assist toddlers with large motor skills development.

Volunteer Opportunities - Donating your time.

ADD accepts donations of time at the Dahlberg Learning Center. One area of opportunity at Dahlberg is the Foster Grandparent program. Foster Grandparents assist the classroom teacher in providing a caring atmosphere to the children at the school. Other volunteer opportunities include reading to the children, helping to unpack food orders, gardening and answering phones after the end of the school day. To learn more about Foster Grandparents as well as other Volunteer Opportunities at Dahlberg, please call the school manager at (614) 447-0606.
