WELCOME TO GUARDIAN ANGEL COUNCIL

Our mission is to educate and improve the welfare of disadvantaged populations in the community.

This is accomplished through our programs, each designed to empower, educate, and create lasting impact where it’s needed most.

Our first program is the Book for Book® Program, which works to increase early childhood literacy rates across the nation. Currently, there is only 1 book for every 300 children who live in low-income communities. In partnership with Young Series™ publisher, we distribute bilingual children’s books to Title I schools. Our goal is simple — to provide 1 book for every child in America.

Our second program is We Run Mesa™, a partnership with Mesa Public Schools that encourages youth engagement and fitness. The program is supported by the Mesa Police and Fire Departments, whose members run alongside participating students. Many of these youth come from low-income households in the surrounding neighborhoods, and this program helps them build confidence, resilience, and connection.

Our third program involves serving as a recruitment organization for Be The Match®. We coordinate local events to help diversify the national bone marrow registry and raise awareness of the life-saving impact of donation. Every day, thousands of patients with leukemia and other life-threatening diseases rely on the registry for a potential match. You have the power to save a life!

Our newest initiative is the Autism Training Academy (ATA) Program. Through an exclusive licensing agreement with Autism Training Academy, Guardian Angel Council helps fund and provide access to the Certificate in Autism Support (CAS) — a professional certification designed for educators and support staff. This program ensures schools have the tools and training needed to support students on the autism spectrum. By partnering with local businesses, utility companies, and foundations, we work to make autism education accessible, inclusive, and sustainable across classrooms nationwide.

BOOK FOR BOOK® PROGRAM

Recognizing the gap between literacy rates with low-income children and middle-income children in communities across the nation, Guardian Angel Council saw the need to provide books to children in need. This will guide the future of not only our children, but for the impact that they will have by contributing to society as a collective group.

For every book that is purchased our partnership with the Young Series™ publisher, we will donate a book to a child in need.

THE NEED FOR MINORITIES IN THE REGISTRY

Because tissue types are inherited, patients are most likely to match someone of their own race or ethnicity. Registry members from diverse racial and ethnic backgrounds are especially needed. Caucasians make up 74% of the registry. Hispanic/Latino make up 10% of registry, African American/Black make up 7%, Asian/South Asian make up 7%, Multiple Races make up 3%, American Indian/Alaska Native make up 1%, and Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander make up 0.1%.
