Addam C. Medina Foundation | Instruments of Change
  Be Better Animation

Our Mission

To serve as instruments of change by aligning with parents, youth, and the community in an effort to strengthen and protect Iowa youth, families, and communities from substance abuse.

About the ACM Foundation

The idea for the Addam C. Medina Foundation originated shortly after Addam's death in 2005. Given Addam's talent and passionate interest in music, fundraising events featuring young Iowa musicians, including Addam's family and friends, seemed to be a fitting tribute.

Our April 2015 event raised more than $10,000 to support youth-oriented nonprofits.

This year we will be hosting our 11th ACM Foundation Benefit at the beautiful State of Iowa Historical Museum on Saturday, April 16, 2016! Please visit our Events page for more detail.

The foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Current board members include Vicki Facto, Amanda Byers, Alina Grimm, Mona Medina and Rick and Cathy Medina.
