Fund for Anne Arundel Challenge Grant

We are excited to announce that two CFAAC funds, the Crosby Foundation, and the Peterman Ponatoski Family Foundation are each contributing $25,000 to CFAAC’s Fund for Anne Arundel as a matching gift challenge. The hope is that together we can raise an additional $50,000 to reach or even exceed our $100,000 fundraising goal.

Ralph Crosby, Founder & Chairman and Raymond Crosby, President & CEO of Crosby Marketing along with Edward and Angela Ponatoski, are kicking off CFAAC’s matching gift campaign to help raise $100,000 to increase the amount of funding that the foundation has available to strategically align its grantmaking with the most critical needs in the county. The Crosby’s and Ponatoski’s grants will match dollar-for-dollar all donations up to $100,000.

As federal, state, and local funding support for nonprofits continues to decline for countless reasons, individual donors and community foundations are being called on to fill the gaps so that nonprofits can continue to provide essential community services.

CFAAC's Fund for Anne Arundel continues to focus on healthy, thriving, successful children, by awarding grants to programs that address the needs of Anne Arundel County children and families. This year we will prioritize funding for access to physical, mental, and behavioral health programs, which are more important than ever, because of the effects of COVID-19.

Your donation to CFAAC’s Fund for Anne Arundel will help improve the quality of life for vulnerable children and families in our county, now and for generations to come! Thank you for being a part of our efforts, and our future.
