What's Happening with ACRS

    Date set for ACRS' 22nd Annual Walk for Rice!

    Save the date! We're happy to announce that this year's Walk For Rice will be held on Saturday, June 30th!

    Last year , you helped us raise more than $150,000 for the ACRS Food Bank, which is still being used to purchase all kinds of groceries-- including Asian staples (rice, ramen and tofu) -- that will help feed nearly 5,000 individuals who depend on us.
