Awards & Accomplishments
PAF is honored to be the recipient of many distinguished recognitions and awards throughout our 26 years of service.
PAF's most recent national recognitions include Charity Navigator's 100/100 Give With Confidence rating, GuideStar's 2021 Platinum Seal of Transparency and Great Nonprofits' 2021 Top-Rated Non-Profit designation. Three of PAF's educational resources and publications received national recognition, earning an Aster Awards Gold and two Digital Health Awards. While the evaluation criteria used by each vary, these distinctions signify that the level and consistency of the financial stewardship applied to donations and the progress PAF is making toward its mission is among the best in the nation's non-profit community.
“I want to be able to help children when they are faced with a life-altering diagnosis. The benefits of receiving this scholarship from PAF have helped me achieve my dream of returning to UALR. When I was diagnosed, I was forced to drop out of classes which disqualified me for my scholarships. I was always afraid I would not be able to get any scholarships to help me go back. With the help of PAF I am now living my dream!” - Sheralyn, University of Arkansas at Little Rock, Psychology Major
"I must say that I’ve never spoken with anyone who seemed to understand what being a caregiver actually entails. After speaking with you via telephone you so effortlessly supported me with patience, care and professionalism. During our conversation you somehow eased my pain, stress and anxiousness."
"PAF has been really helpful with everything. I appreciate all the help I have received during this rough time."
