All Community Outreach Promise

We’re On A Mission To Serve the community

MISSION - To help our neighbors to prevent hunger and homelessness while working toward financial stability.

VISION - To create a community free of poverty one neighbor at a time.

"I CHANGE LIVES" isn't just a tag line that we print on our shirts, or lightly speak of when talking about ACO Programs and Services. It is our mission, our focus and our commitment to the families in Collin County facing crisis situations who come through our doors every day. By first securing their immediate needs for food and housing, our case directors then walk hand in hand with each family through programs and services offered to provide a path to long-term financial stability. It's truly life changing.

It’s More Than a Hug – October 2024

Today I got a hug that I didn’t even know that I needed. As I sat in my office pouring over reports and preparing for our upcoming Board of Directors meeting, one of our case directors came into my office in tears and asked for a hug. I was expecting the worst and said, “Oh my gosh- WHAT’S WRONG?!” She said, “No, nothing, this hug is for you.”

She had just come from Walmart where she purchased an air mattress for a grandmother that had come into ACO for assistance. This elderly woman was giving her bed to her grandchildren that she was attempting to raise, house, clothe and feed while also caring for her daughter on palliative care and living on a ventilator. This grandmother was painfully sleeping on the floor every night.
