MISSION
The mission
of the Alma Randolph Charitable Foundation Inc (ARCF) is to provide
new back-to- school clothing for the disadvantaged children in Owensboro-Daviess
County, Kentucky. We believe that our program enhances their self-esteem
and allows them to return to school with dignity, and ready to focus
on learning. Referrals are submitted by the area homeless shelters,
youth centers, and the city and county school systems. Each child
selected to participate in the annual shopping project receives a
voucher to purchase new clothing and shoes for school.
ABOUT
THE FOUNDATION

in Owensboro, KY and with the support of Western Kentucky contributors,the

annual “Back-to-School” project is funded through your donations
and the ARCF’s annual fund-raising events. The foundation is governed
