In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, community-based organizations are on the frontlines in their communities working to ensure the health and well-being of all children and families. At the Alliance, we’re working to keep community-based organizations strong, well-informed, and connected during this vulnerable time, including advocating for relief in Washington, D.C. Now more than ever, we need your help. We are all in this together, and we ask for your support.

For Members

To assist organizations in raising these critical funds, the Alliance has created a COVID-19 Fundraising and Media Outreach Toolkit, which includes a national fundraising campaign with graphics and sample posts as well as media outreach templates.


Every donation helps the Alliance for Strong Families and Communities work toward its vision of a healthy and equitable society.
