Your Help Makes All the Difference
Open doors to opportunities
Qualifying for federal and state funding is a crucial element that enables RCMA to help kids strive for their dreams every day. But, a requirement of receiving this funding is that we must raise $500,000 annually on our own. To meet this goal, RCMA relies heavily on caring, generous individuals who envision a compassionate world. These contributions enable us to provide affordable child care and education for the children of migrant working and low-income families.
In addition to donating, there are many other ways you can help RCMA serve these hopeful, happy children.
Donate
The easiest way you can play a helping role is by using our online form to make a secure donation via credit card. For only a $1 private donation, RCMA receives up to $16 in state and federal funding. Your tax-deductible donation ensures RCMA can provide children with learning opportunities they may never otherwise receive.
How far can your donation really go?
$6,000 sponsors 20 children for one year.
$1,200 sponsors four children for one year.
$300 sponsors one preschool child for one year.
$250 provides scholarship help for one staff member or graduating senior.
$100 buys books for a classroom.
$50 pays for school supplies for a child for one year.
$25 tutors five children after school for one week.
Volunteer
By volunteering at RCMA, you help some of Florida’s most vulnerable families gain caring, empathy-driven access to quality child care, education, and resources. You can play a direct role in providing opportunities some children would never otherwise get. The volunteers who serve in our centers see the positive impact they make in children’s lives every single day. How might you help those who are striving for big dreams?
Golf Tournament
If you’re a golfer, you can help RCMA while enjoying your favorite hobby! During the Annual Lipman Golf Classic, we celebrate another year of service together.
