Five on the Fourth Went Virtual
Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, our signature event on the 4th of July turned into a Virtual QuaRUNtine run/walk last year. We were thrilled that we still had just as many supporters sign up as we typically have had for the in-person event. Check back for information about this year's race. Only time will tell if we will be able to hold it in-person, virtual, or a combination of the two.
Georges Niang 2021 Golf Outing
Friendship Ark was selected as the charity partner of the 2020 Georges Niang Golf Outing, however, due to the challenges of the ongoing Covid-19 Pandemic, the outing needed to be postponed to 2021. We are excited to announce that registration for this event is now open. CLICK HERE to find out more and learn how to register.
Annual Fundraising Event
Due to our partnership with the 2021 Georges Niang Golf Outing we will not be holding our annual fundraising event this year. Watch for updates as we prepare to roll out a brand new event in 2022. We thank you for your continued support.

Donate
Friendship Ark is witnessing growing demand for both homes and community services at the same time that some funding sources are expected to decline. We encourage you to think about three ways you can support the meaningful work underway at Friendship Ark. (1) Donate to the construction of a new home, (2) Contribute to the endowment fund; or (3) Consider a deferred gift. Click here to learn more.
Thank you for your support, be it financial or with your time. Both are valuable. You matter and we are very thankful to have so many caring individuals affect the organization and the core members.
