Why Support the ACA?
Your Gift Stays in Your Community
Your donation will mean supporting a local charity that best understands local needs. We serve the 8 civil parishes that make up the Archdiocese of New Orleans: Orleans, Jefferson, St. Tammany, St. Bernard, Plaquemines, St. Charles, St. John, and Washington parishes.
We are Fiscally Responsible
94 cents of every donated dollar goes to direct services.
Your Gift is Leveraged
Every dollar given to the ACA is leveraged 71 times more through donated goods and services.
We are Diverse
We operate 47 programs, dealing with issues dealing with hurricane recovery, children and families, domestic violence and sexual assault, food and nutrition, healthcare, housing and homelessness, immigration, and seniors.
