FEATURE STORY

Alison and Arnie Richman: Giving to Help Baltimore's Children Get a Better Start 

When Arnie Richman visited a Judy Center at Liberty Heights Elementary, he saw that helping families access non-academic services can give children a great advantage in being ready for school.

 

His wife, Alison, a retired social worker, also recognized the benefits of the Judy Center model. Together, the Richmans made a gift to BCF to help expand Judy Centers. Find out why they gave to this important project.

 

You can help too. Make a gift to help BCF continue the expansion of Judy Centers. You can also recommend a grant from your charitable fund at BCF.
