      Supplement dated October 3, 2003 to the Prospectus dated March 31, 2003 of
The AllianceBernstein Growth Funds that offers the Class A, Class B, Class C and

Supplement provides additional information under the heading "Management of the
Funds" and supersedes certain information relating to the Fund under the heading
"Management of the Funds-Portfolio Managers" in the Prospectus.

Management of the Funds

      Alliance Capital Management L.P., the Funds' Adviser, has issued a press
release announcing that it has been contacted by the Office of the New York
State Attorney General ("NYAG") and the United States Securities and Exchange
Commission ("SEC") in connection with their investigation of practices in the
mutual fund industry identified as "market timing" and "late trading" of mutual
fund shares, and that Alliance Capital has been providing full cooperation.

      Alliance Capital also announced that, based on the preliminary results of
its own ongoing internal investigation concerning mutual fund transactions, it
has identified conflicts of interest in connection with certain market timing
transactions. In this regard, Alliance Capital has suspended two of its
employees, one of whom had been the portfolio manager and an officer of the
AllianceBernstein Technology Fund and the other of whom had been an executive
involved in selling Alliance Capital's hedge fund products.

      Alliance Capital also announced that its Board of Directors authorized a
special committee, comprised of the members of Alliance Capital's Audit
Committee and the other independent member of the Board, to direct and oversee a
comprehensive review of the facts and circumstances relevant to the SEC's and
the NYAG's investigations.

Management of the Funds-Portfolio Managers

      Effective September 30, 2003, Janet Walsh is the person who is primarily
responsible for the day-to-day management of the AllianceBernstein Technology
Fund. Ms. Walsh is a Senior Vice President of Alliance Capital Management
Corporation with which she has been associated for the past five years.
