Our Funding

ALMS+2-766w.png

As mentioned, ALMS is currently a volunteer-only, 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Mostly dependent upon grassroots funding, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, ALMS has prioritized meager financial resources toward protecting services and infrastructure to deliver services. Salaries and benefits, including for the full-time Executive Director position, are suspended to preserve the overall mission.

Projected funding sources include the following:

  • Monthly giving

  • Private grants and foundations

  • Big Day of Giving (BDOG)

  • Business and corporate giving programs

  • Private donations

  • Fundraising events

  • Direct mail, newsletters, appeals
