For funders

Invest in access. Strengthen immigrant opportunity.

Partner with Angkor Resource Center around English education, citizenship preparation, and low-cost immigration support in Riverdale, Georgia.

THE CASE FOR PARTNERSHIP

Practical services.
A shared purpose.

ARC’s published programs connect education and immigration support with a clear purpose: helping immigrants move toward greater self-sufficiency and participation in community life.

For a grant partnership, the next step is a defined project—not a general promise. Together, ARC and a prospective funder can discuss the audience, activities, responsible team, budget, milestones, and evidence needed to assess progress.

THE COMMUNITY AROUND US

Local context.
A clear purpose for access.

ARC is based in Riverdale, Georgia.
Public Census data help describe the community.

Education and practical guidance can help immigrants navigate important next steps. ARC connects English learning, citizenship preparation, and immigration support through its published programs.

These community indicators support a starting point for discussion. A funder-specific need assessment also requires ARC’s own intake data, participant perspectives, and evidence of service gaps.

16.4%of Riverdale residents are foreign-born
22.8%of residents age 5+ speak a language other than English at home

Review the program

Activities, costs, eligibility, staffing, and targets must be confirmed for each proposal. No award amount, tax deductibility, or funding eligibility is implied.

MEASURABLE BY DESIGN

Define progress before
a project begins.

A credible funding case connects activities to observable milestones. The proposed framework distinguishes people reached, learning progress, application steps, and participant experience.

It is a planning framework—not evidence that ARC has already collected or achieved these results. A grant-period baseline, target, method, and reporting owner need to be agreed before results are claimed.
