Dear Friends and Families of The Arc of Somerset County,

Watching a child make new friends, take first steps, thrive from receiving a service they truly need - these are some of the best gifts the Jerry Davis Center for Children and Families (JDCCF) at The Arc of Somerset County provides.

Meet Sally and Savannah, two young sisters in our JDCCF community. Sally, now two and a half years old, was born with complications and reliant on a feeding tube. Facing developmental delays, she attends our specialized childcare program full-time where she receives, among other services, Occupational and Speech therapies. Sally is now quite the eater - making wonderful progress and developing age-appropriate skills and behaviors.

Her younger sister, six-month-old Savannah, is thriving in our small group setting where her growth is nurtured in an attentive environment. Still acquiring new skills, Savannah benefits from the close attention and care we provide in an enhanced ratio, allowing her to progress optimally.

Milestones and successes like these are what the Jerry Davis Center for Children & Families represents. Central to our mission is integrated, specialized childcare with an emphasis on reducing financial barriers. Your generosity supports us in this mission on behalf of the many children JDCCF serves every day.

For 2025 we have set a goal of $25,000 to support access to specialized childcare for families in need, opening a world of services and advocacy for their young ones, like Sally and Savannah.

Will you make a gift today?

·       Your $100 gift will provide four new helmets for safe ride-on play.

·       Your $500 gift will provide one new specialty crib for infant attendees.

·       Your $1500 gift will provide six months of group therapeutic services by a credentialed practitioner.

·       Your $5,000 gift will provide an infant or toddler with special needs one year of part-time attendance.

·       Your $10,000 gift will provide copay reduction for ten families in need for one year of attendance. 

Please make your donation through the DONATE button located at the top right corner of our website, www.TheArcOfSomerset.org, or make a check payable to The Arc Foundation of Somerset County.

As 2024 draws to a close, we express our gratitude to all who have supported The Arc community throughout the year and extend our thanks to new friends.

May 2025 bring you much health and happiness,

DAF Direct makes it easier to support your favorite charities by giving directly from your donor-advised fund.

What is a DAF?

A donor-advised fund (DAF) is a centralized charitable account. It allows charitably-inclined individual, families and businesses to make tax-deductible charitable donations of cash, publicly-traded stock and in some case, certain liquid assets, to a public charity that sponsors a DAF program.
