Each gift helps bring support to a child, young person, or adult who has suffered the violent crime of sexual assault and its traumatic after-shock. Donations also support our critical prevention education programs.

 

Community Violence Solutions relies on the generosity and support of many individuals, businesses, and organizations in the community. We invite you to help us provide vital services to those impacted by sexual assault and family violence, and increase safety for everyone in our community.

$25 will provide 2 hours of crisis counseling to a rape victim on our hotline
$50 will provide play therapy supplies for our child victims for one month
$100 will provide a day of emergency housing for a victim
$250 will provide scholarships for 8 teenage girls to attend a self-defense class

• Vehicle Donations

CVS works with Donate For Charity to process our vehicle donations. Donate For Charity arranges a free vehicle pickup, handles all the DMV issues, sells the vehicle at auction, and distributes the net proceeds to Community Violence Solutions. By donating, you’ll avoid the headache of selling a used vehicle, help support Community Violence Solutions, and receive a receipt entitling you to declare the sale price of your vehicle (or the fair market value up to $500) as a tax deduction. When you’re ready to donate, or want to learn more, simply call Donate For Charity toll-free at (866) 392-4483 or donate online, or contact Community Violence Solutions directly at (510) 237-0113.
