Helping Our Neighbors
Through Collaborative Sourcing of Materials, Skilled Labor and Funding, ADC Assists WNC Families Through Times of Trial.
As ADC is 100% dependent upon charitable donations and grants for our programs, availability of assistance is dependent upon funding. Currently, we are accepting inquiries for assistance and our team will get back with you upon review and program availability. Please be patient in awaiting contact from our team as requests for assistance are plentiful.
