Make A Donation!

Center for Survivors is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization, which provides free and confidential services to victims of domestic/dating abuse, sexual abuse, stalking, and human trafficking. These services would not be possible without your generous donations!

Donations of monetary value are always accepted, however if you are interested in donating items such as clothing, furniture, and household items, please call the Center for Survivors during regular business hours ahead of time.
