Welcome Amazon Employees!
Thank you, Amazonians, for helping Arlington families build stronger futures! AHC Inc is grateful to be one of the local nonprofit partners chosen to participate in Amazon’s Employee Matching Campaign. Now through September 30, Amazon is matching employees’ donations one-for-one, up to a total of $5 million. Your support for affordable housing and education opportunities can change lives. Thank you!
Housing + Education = Success
AHC Inc. develops and preserves housing that is affordable to low- and moderate-income families, individuals, and senior citizens. With more than 40 years of community experience, we know first-hand that an affordable roof overhead is the first step in family stability.
Our extensive education and social services programs build on that foundation.
Our super power? AHC works right where people live. Our programs are consistent and accessible. Our staff are trusted resources. Children grow up in our programs and thrive. That’s why we believe “Housing + Education = Success.”
Our Track Record
- 100% of AHC’s students graduate from high school.
- Nearly all go to college and are the first in their families to achieve this milestone.
- Last year, our high school grads earned more than $600K in scholarships.
- 80% of AHC’s college students are persisting in college or have graduated. This compares to 74% of U.S. college students with college-educated parents and 56% of first-generation students.
