Using community resources to meet community needs.
OUR SERVICES
Through various programs, fundraisers and outreach, DARN raises dollars and gathers community resources to distribute to those children and families who need it most.
Donate
Some in the Bexley community find themselves challenged from time to time to make ends meet and provide for their families. Sometimes families need help with "life's extras", while others need periodic assistance with more basic needs such as food and clothing. When such needs arise, families can turn to DARN for support.

OUR WORK
Due to COVID-19, we made adjustments to our annual Adopt-a-Family program. We are unable to deliver physical gifts, so this year we will be serving our families by providing gift cards to their chosen locations. This holiday season, DARN is serving 116 children, representing 47 families! This year we had 72 donors who sponsored at least 1 child this season and 19 donors who provided gift cards and/or gift wrap! Thank you to everyone who donated - big or small.
OUR TEAM
DARN was founded by Bexley community members and Bexley City School staff who understood that the need in the community could be met with resources already within the community.
