Today is DAF Day!

If you have a donor-advised fund, you have already set aside money to make a difference. Today is the perfect day to put those dollars to work.

A grant to the Elaine Clark Center helps children and young adults with special needs learn, grow, build independence, and experience the everyday moments every family hopes for—from classroom friendships and birthday celebrations to new skills and greater confidence.

Your DAF contribution can help provide specialized care, inclusive education, family support, and opportunities that change lives.

On DAF Day, recommend a grant to the Elaine Clark Center and help strengthen a community that has supported children, adults, and families for more than 55 years.

Already made a DAF gift? Let us know so we can thank you!

October 8 is DAF Day—a national day of giving through donor-advised funds.

If you already have a donor-advised fund, you have set aside money to support the causes that matter to you. Today is the perfect day to put those charitable dollars to work.

A grant to the Elaine Clark Center helps children and young adults with disabilities learn, grow and participate more fully in their community. It supports skilled teachers and therapists, specialized programs and the families who rely on ECC to see their loved one’s potential—and help them reach it.

Recommend a grant to the Elaine Clark Center through your DAF provider today. If you need information to complete your grant recommendation, please contact us. We would be happy to help.

Your generosity helps build a community where every person belongs.

Your business can do more than appear on a race shirt. It can help create opportunities for children, young adults and families across our community.

Sponsorships are now available for the 17th Annual Hustle for Hope 5K, happening Saturday, April 24, 2027, in Downtown Chamblee.

Hustle for Hope brings together runners, walkers, families, local businesses and longtime friends of the Elaine Clark Center for a joyful morning with a serious purpose. Sponsorship dollars help ECC continue providing inclusive programs and meaningful support for the children, young adults and families we serve.

For our business partners, sponsorship is also an opportunity to:

• Show your commitment to an inclusive community
• Connect with local families and community leaders
• Build visibility before, during and after the event
• Stand behind a trusted Chamblee nonprofit with more than 50 years of service

Sponsorship opportunities begin at $500, with multiple levels available for businesses and organizations of all sizes.

Want to put your company’s name behind a stronger, more inclusive community? Send us a message, and we’ll share the sponsorship information with you.

Let’s Hustle for Hope together.

Every nonprofit began with someone deciding that a need in their community mattered—and that something should be done about it.

But caring about a problem and building the programs to address it are two different things. The work requires committed people, safe spaces, dependable resources and a community willing to stand behind the mission.

That is why donating to a nonprofit matters.

A donation is more than a transaction. It is a vote of confidence. It tells an organization, “I see this work. I believe it matters. I want it to continue.”

Some gifts fund the visible moments: a child reaching a new milestone, a family receiving support or a young adult gaining independence. Others help cover the ordinary necessities that make those moments possible—the trained staff, supplies, facilities and daily operations behind every successful program.

No single person has to do everything. But each of us can do something.

Find a nonprofit doing work you believe in. Learn about its mission. Share its story. Volunteer when you can. And if you are able, make a gift—of any size.

Strong nonprofits help build strong communities, but they cannot do it without the people who believe in them.

When a child becomes part of the Elaine Clark Center, their family becomes part of our community too.

Parents know their children better than anyone. They know what brings out a smile, what makes a difficult day a little easier and what progress looks like—even when it comes in the smallest steps. That knowledge makes families essential partners in everything we do.

Our teachers and staff work alongside parents to celebrate milestones, navigate challenges and help each child grow with confidence. Sometimes support means sharing resources or answering questions. Sometimes it means listening. And sometimes it simply means reminding a parent that they are not walking this road alone.

Because caring for a child means caring about the people who love them, advocate for them and cheer them on every day.

At the Elaine Clark Center, we don’t just support children. We support families—and we are grateful for every family that trusts us to be part of their story.

What could be better on a gorgeous fall day than making sidewalk art? 🍂🎨

At The Elaine Clark Center, this is more than a colorful afternoon outdoors. Every piece of chalk held in a small hand is practice using a writing tool. Every line, shape, and scribble helps build grip strength, hand-eye coordination, fine motor control, and early writing skills children will use in the classroom.

Learning doesn’t always look like sitting at a desk. Sometimes, it looks like sunshine, imagination, and a sidewalk covered in chalk.

That’s the beauty of learning through play: children build important skills while simply having fun.
