Our Purpose
To put it simply, ACT wants to raise awareness and to be a trusted reliable source of funding for children’s charities of all kinds. There are so many wonderful charities that you may not even be aware of or maybe you are not sure which ones are fiscally responsible. Our Board of Directors will carefully research each charity we provide funding to make sure more of your donated dollars go toward the cause and not overhead or unnecessary expense. In our first full year in operation we were able to provide funding to three great charities that provide far reaching benefits for families locally as well as nationally. The Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, The AJ Foundation for Children with Autism and The Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation are just some of the charities we plan on funding again this year. Each of our Board members has individually been involved with countless charities and fundraising events over the years and each is committed to our core mission of helping children in need by maximizing the impact of every dollar you donate.
Our Mission
The mission of the Arnold Charitable Trust (ACT) mission is to provide funding to organizations that assist or help children. By providing grants to these organizations, we are ensuring that they have the necessary funding to fulfill their individual mission of giving children the help they need when they need it most. ACT's general purpose is to raise money and awareness of children's charities in Pennsylvania.
