Counselors Care Fund - Helping Our Own

Apr 13, 2006

Assisting ÀÖ²©´«Ã½Members and ÀÖ²©´«Ã½Branch Organizations that are Struggling and Serving in the Aftermath of Hurricane Katrina

Across the nation, counselors are reaching out to help colleagues by making a gift to the Counselors Care Fund. And, the ÀÖ²©´«Ã½ Foundation is doubling the Fund by matching each gift, up to a total of $50,000!

If you are a counselor unaffected personally by the hurricane yet eager to reach out with empathy, please support your colleagues with a gift to the Counselors Care Fund on the Foundation's secure donation page.

Or you may mail your gift to the Counselors Care Fund at the address shown below. Your contribution today will help a colleague in need now.

The Counselors Care Fund provides help in two ways:

  • With grants up to $500 to help ÀÖ²©´«Ã½members get back on their professional feet or serve the survivors of Hurricane Katrina
  • With grants up to $1,000 to help ÀÖ²©´«Ã½branch organizations meet the enormous challenges of the storm's devastation and impact on people.

If you are a counselor struggling to recover from the storm or if you represent an ÀÖ²©´«Ã½branch organization, please complete the one-page application for funds today!

Your application will be reviewed promptly by a team of ÀÖ²©´«Ã½professionals, with priority given to applicants residing in the affected areas.

Thank you for your support and your interest. Gifts may be mailed to the Counselors Care Fund, ACAF, 5999 Stevenson Ave., Alexandria, VA 22304. or may be made on our secure website at www.counseling.org/foundation Questions? Call 1-800-347-6647, ext. 222 (applications) or ext. 350 (contributions).
