Events
PACER holds a variety of community events throughout the year, and needs volunteers to participate on planning committees and to help with set-up and registration at the events.
PACER Center is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization that relies on individual, corporate, and foundation contributions and support. PACER is fiscally responsible: Only 15 percent of funds are used for management and fundraising, so 85 percent of funds will go directly to programs and services that assist all children including those with any disability and their families.
PACER welcomes contributions in a variety of ways, and any amount is appreciated.
