Fund Development

We are all aware of the toll that addiction and poor mental health can take on our community. The Family Outreach Center is organized to tackle the problem head-on.

Since 1979 Family Outreach Center has built its program services with the mission of leading the way of promoting healthy family living among people of color and those who are low income in our community. 

We have been successful in our efforts as demonstrated with our Kinship program of re-unifying families with family and extended family members to reduce the incidence of Foster Care placement.  The Kinship program demonstrates our strategy of being effective through collaboration.  We understand and operate under the premise of making lasting impact by meeting the needs of those in our community through a collaborative approach. 

In 2007 we expanded our Fund Development staff to a team approach to impact the many lives of individuals and families who are reaching out to our agency.  Our desire is that we meet the needs of the people with minimal systematic restrictions. 

The fund development team consists of business professionals such as you, who can assist us in directing, organizing, and implementing fund development, staff and consumers.

We are consistantly looking for those who desire a volunteer opportunity to assist us in meeting the needs of the people in our community.  Our Fund Development Team is currently looking for someone who has event planning experience, public relations, and marketing.
