Donations
Donations are the mainstay of nonprofit
social service agencies and come in three general forms: time, talent and
treasures. Aviva Children's Services certainly depends on them all to sustain
the level of programs and goods requested from CPS case workers.
There are so many ways the community can get involved:
Offer your time:
Volunteer to be a mentor to a child, become a community advisor for a teen living independently,
research and write a child’s Life Book or scrapbook it to make it a cherished
keepsake, help out case managers by being a social worker assistant.
Organize a group of friends or co-workers for one of Aviva’s special projects
like the Undies Sundays drive, Back to School Supply drive or the many Holiday
projects such as the Sun Riders Motorcycle Club Toy Parade, sorting toys,
wrapping toys or delivering toys.
Share your talent:
Create beautiful handmade blankets, quilts, afghans or sew Bags for Kids duffle
bags. Hand tool wooden cars, planes or trains for the boys or dolls and doll
beds for the girls. Scrapbook a life book that someone
else has researched.
Give your treasures:
Donate used furniture, household goods and gently used clothes and toys.

through the United Way from your paycheck. Donate cash, checks or give through

with the items they are lacking funds to provide.
