The 2026 Annual Community Meeting brings our community together to connect, celebrate local impact, and explore how Together We Grow across Washtenaw County.
Areas of Impact
We help you make a meaningful impact in the areas you are passionate about. Whether your philanthropic goals are centered around a specific community, such as Ypsilanti or Dexter, or you want to address a certain need throughout our county, such as aging justice or racial equity, we are here to be your partner in making that impact happen in our community.
Leveraging Knowledge
At AAACF, we believe in the power of leveraging knowledge to drive positive change in our communities. Through these resources, we hope to connect you with the data that you are seeking and amplify the positive contributions you are making in Washtenaw County.
