For well over a decade, many of the youth and families served by Alum Rock Counseling Center have come to count on the support and generosity of our donors to help get them through the holidays. Providing hundreds of youth and caregivers with gifts and other critically needed items, ARCC’s Holiday Appeal is committed to once again giving families a sense of hope, upliftment & joy this holiday season.

Want to be part of the magic?

 

Here’s how you can support ARCC’s 2023 Holiday Appeal:

Option 1:

Make a donation online or mail a check payable to Alum Rock Counseling Center to:
ARCC’s 2023 Holiday Appeal
Attn: Stacy Dryer
1245 East Santa Clara Street
San Jose, CA 95116

Option 2:

Purchase needed items for
some of our older youth via
this amazon wish list

Option 3:

Donate a $25 Target or Amazon gift card, which will allow one child to select a gift for the holidays or their caregiver to buy a holiday gift for them. [Gift cards can be mailed to the address indicated under option 1]

Here’s what one mother had to say about the gifts she received for her family:

“This past year, I’m extremely proud to have achieved 17 months clean and sober and to finally have my children back home and our custody case closed. It feels amazing to be able to come back from a difficult situation and have the support that I do behind my family. The gifts are a blessing to my kids and it lets them enjoy our holiday a little bit more. The gifts are especially important this season because it is my children’s first Christmas back home. Even though I’ve been working hard and trying to put in overtime, I just recently fell ill a bit, so I will be missing some time on my next paycheck. Having the gifts from ARCC for the kids is helping out a lot.”
