Who We Are and What We Do

Lending a Helping Hand

Our charitable purpose is the advancement of health and well being with elderly, frail and disabled people in our community who with additional help can continue to live independently with privacy and dignity in their own homes. We also help all our adult community in a variety of ways which are described in this website.

Our Causes

Acorn Community Support works tirelessly to provide quality, long-term solutions for a number of pressing issues affecting our community. Our most significant causes are those that are often brushed aside by most. Our battle is against indifference, and we would love for you to become part of that change today.
