Arlington Tomorrow Foundation ATF 2016 - 10 year anniversary | Page 9

Delivering Dreams h u man ser v ices We believe the health and wellness of a community starts with healthy, happy families. That’s why we give to organizations that help children, youth and families reach their full potential, whether by delivering warm meals to the homes of senior citizens or safe, academic-focused after-school care for adolescents. The impact some of these gifts make in the community is instantly measurable. The Arlington Tomorrow Foundation has been proud to support Meals on Wheels Inc. of Tarrant County since 2010. During that time, the agency has provided 30,000 meals – and 30,000 smiles – to elderly and disabled residents in Arlington. But we realize other gifts are shaping lives for the better in ways that may not be known for years. That’s one of the many reasons the Arlington Tomorrow Foundation was honored to gift $650,000 toward the creation of the 7,000-square-foot Boys & Girls Clubs branch at the new Peach Elementary School. Through a unique partnership between the Arlington Independent School District and the nonprofit agency, the center provides Arlington families with an after-school care program focused on academics, healthy lifestyle and character development.
