Our Mission

To enhance the quality of life for foster children and children at risk of abuse and neglect by promoting community awareness, involvement and resource development.

Achieving Our Mission

The Fund for Alexandria's Child helps children in foster care and those at risk of abuse or neglect to experience the richness of life through such activities as dance, art or karate lessons, summer camping, school field trips, Scouting and team sports. Because of the generosity of our hometown neighbors, we can proudly say that Alexandrians are a community "taking care of our own."

Who Are We?

The Fund for Alexandria's Child is made up of volunteers - people like YOU, from all walks of life - who want to make a difference in the lives of the most vulnerable children in our community. With social workers at the Department of Human Services, we identify children in need and enrich the lives of children in our community who are most at risk. We plan fundraising events, help with the collection and distribution of gifts and other items for the children, and offer our expertise in all areas a volunteer organization needs to fulfill its charge: to help Alexandria's foster children and those at risk of experiencing abuse and neglect.

The Advisory Council for The Fund for Alexandria's Child:

  • Council Chairperson -- Nancy Van Gulick
  • Sponsorships Co-Chairs -- Marie Kerwan & Mary E. White

How Can You Help?

The Advisory Council depends heavily on the generosity of local businesses, faith groups and individuals, who donate money, goods and services in support of one of our fundraising events or year round as needs arise. Your donation is always fully tax-deductible.

Please consider becoming a major event sponsor, participating as a volunteer, or purchasing tickets to join us at our next event!
