Welcome to Class 1's team page!

Everyone's why:

When I started at ALCA, I never knew how much I would be changed. Everyday I come to work, I push students to step outside their comfort zone as much as they challenge me to be more creative, inspire me to think differently, and push me to always put my best foot forward in everything I do. By contributing to the fundraiser, you are helping to open more opportunities for our current students and allow us to continue to welcome new children into our ALCA family.

We've formed a team to support the expansion of the school to accommodate 25 - 30 new students while continuing to accommodate our current students. The renovation will create additional classrooms, therapeutic rooms, and vocational centers to even better serve our students. We'd love your support as we grow. If you want to do more than make a donation, join our team!

Every donation brings us closer to completion of this project. ALCA continues to change the lives of our students and their families.  Please support our team today and you will change the lives of our students and their families.
