Rockville, MD, March 10, 2009 /PRNewswire/ -- The Aronson Foundation, a charitable organization, is pleased to announce that it has awarded a $5,000 grant to Bread for the City in support of its Families at Risk Project, a program which offers free medical care, legal advice and representation, comprehensive social services, food and clothing to families living in poverty in Washington, DC. This is the second grant that the Aronson Foundation has made to Bread for the City.
Jeffery Capron, President of the Aronson Foundation commented on Bread for the City, “This organization has proven to be a great resource for families struggling in our community. The Foundation is very happy to be able to help them continue to do the important work that they do on a daily basis.”
Aronson & Company, a Washington area accounting and consulting firm, formed the Aronson Foundation to address the needs of the community we have served for nearly 50 years. With a primary focus on the needs of children, the Foundation grants charitable contributions to organizations who have dedicated themselves to providing services that enhance our world and help the people in it thrive and succeed. All of this is made possible through the generosity and enthusiasm of Aronson & Company staff, officers, clients and friends.
“At a time when the economy threatens to erode the level of private philanthropy provided to agencies like ours, this grant will support our efforts to provide tangible relief to the poor,” said Bread for the City Executive Director George Jones. “It is extremely encouraging to be one of the beneficiaries of the Foundation’s continued commitment to aiding communities in need.”
