Support The Faison Center

Why The Faison Center

The Faison Center has grown from a school for a handful of children to a one-of-a-kind center that provides a lifespan of services to children and adults with autism and their families. We have much more to do and much farther to travel as we continue, with your support, to make our vision a reality.

Your donation to The Faison Center is necessary, deeply appreciated and fully tax-deductible to the extent permitted by the IRS. To make a gift to The Faison Center, please visit our Donate page or contact our development office via email or by calling 804-612-1952.

Fund a Cause 2022: The Heart of Pioneer Hall

Located on Willow Lawn Drive, Pioneer Hall is the fourth and newest building in our expansion campaign. Pioneer Hall gives the Adult Day and Employment Academy programs a permanent home on our Richmond campus and features the exciting Paige Edmunds clubhouse. In 2021, we asked you to help us build the bones of Pioneer Hall. For the 2022 Fund a Cause, supporters helped us breathe life into the space by making it a welcoming place for those who we serve.

During this campaign, supporters helped us meet our goal of $100,000 to create this engaging, new environment for our students. Every dollar raised through the campaign was matched by a generous, anonymous donor.
