Letter from the Founder

I founded the AngeLink Community Foundation to create a radically new ecosystem of philanthropy to bridge the gap left by outdated, charitable organizations. ACF seeks to address the inefficiencies of traditional charity models that fail to support those in times of urgent need. By focusing on empowering individuals with direct-impact grants, ACF helps those suffering from significant financial challenges. Through focused initiatives and strategic partnerships, ACF fosters collective empowerment while laying the foundation for long-term recovery and sustainable growth so that each individual can live up to their highest potential.

Join ACF in creating better futures and positive change. Join the movement.

With love, Gerry Poirier
