End the Year with Impact
Why Your Support Matters
At the Faunteroy Center, we have the joy and responsibility of serving 100 children and their families throughout the year. For some families the holiday season can be difficult. that is why we host our Winter Wonderland Celebration- an event designed to create magical memories, provide holiday cheer and ensure that every child feels seen and valued. What makes this celebration special is that each child receives a gift personally chosen to reflect their own interest weather it’s a toy, a book, an art kit or sport equipment. This person touch shows them they are not just another kid, but someone special that matter. We would be deeply grateful for your help in bringing the spirit of the season to life.

School Volunteers
PAYING IT FORWARD High school students are required to complete community service hours as a graduation requirement. But is does not have to be a chore. Faunteroy creates a variety of opportunities, spanning different interests that keeps our youth coming back and securing double and sometimes triple their required hours.

Free Little Library
With the assistance of ACAD trained carpenters, your elementary summer program built and decorated 4 Little Libraries. 3 have been gifted to community partners and we kept 1 to place outside the Center.

Youth in Ward 7
Schools do a great job of supporting our youth until 3:30pm. But some families need additional support. One of Faunteroy’s services to the community is providing a safe space with structured, supervised activity from 3:30 - 6:30PM afterschool and from 9:00am - 4:00pm when school is closed.
