Giving to the Annual Appeal
Just in case you missed it!
This year we combined our Annual Report and Annual Appeal into one mailing. This enabled us to send the Annual Report to more people without spending additional funds. But - it also means if you are looking for our traditional Annual Appeal letter and envelope in your mailbox, you should have already received it tucked inside the Annual Report.

Please consider mailing your gift to: ASD Foundation, 31 S. Penn St. Allentown, PA 18102 or click the "Donate Now" button below to give online.

Thank you!
Help us reach our $60,000 goal for 2022-2023!
