Assistance League of Chaves County is an all-volunteer, 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that transforms lives and strengthens community through philanthropic programs.  Member volunteers are dedicated to ongoing support and a long-term presence in the community through hands-on involvement and innovative philanthropic programs.

Since its charter in 1960, Assistance League of Chaves County member volunteers have consistently provided quality service to the Chaves County area.  During the 2017-2018 year, 175 members contributed over 13,500 hours to serve about 8,000 children and adults.

Attempting to meet previously underserved needs, Assistance League of Chaves County supports eleven philanthropic programs.  These programs provide services to every age range in the community.

The Thrift Shop is our main source of funding.  The shop is staffed and managed entirely by our member volunteers.  Donations are always welcome and are tax deductible.

The Assisteens® Auxiliary, which became active in 1957, provides volunteer service and leadership opportunities for youth in grades 9-12.
