Our mission is simple: Strengthening our culture of giving and improving the quality of life among the people of the Arctic Slope. The biggest issue our community is faced with is food insecurity.

According to the USDA, one in 10 children in the North Slope Borough experience food insecurity. This reality is something ASCF is committed to changing. ASCF is steadfast in addressing this issue, and by working with the community we’ve made leaps and bounds in making a change through supporting food banks and leveraging the local leaders of food security, our subsistence hunters, and whalers.   

Over the last three years, ASCF has granted over $1.4 million dollars to charitable organizations to strengthen food security in the Arctic. For us to continue our efforts in this endeavor we need your help. I personally invite you to come and support our 2024 Viva Las Arctic Slope fundraising event happening Saturday December 7^th at the Marriott Anchorage Downtown. This year’s theme is “Elvis Casino Night.”

Our goal this year is to raise $100,000 for our ASCF Food Security grant program. For event information and registration please visit: https://go.rallyup.com/ascf/Campaign/Details
