Ways to Give
There are so many meaningful ways to support children and youth in our community. When you support Durham Children’s Aid Foundation, you help create opportunities, remove barriers, and ensure children and youth connected to the child welfare system have access to the support, experiences, and encouragement they need to thrive.
Whether you choose to make a one-time gift, give monthly, leave a legacy, host your own fundraiser, or attend or sponsor an event, your generosity helps build brighter futures, one child, one youth, and one opportunity at a time.
Make a One-Time Gift
A one-time gift can make an immediate and meaningful difference. Your donation helps provide practical support where it is needed most, from education and enrichment opportunities to urgent needs, seasonal supports, and experiences that help children and youth feel included, valued, and empowered.
Become a Monthly Donor
Monthly giving is one of the most powerful ways to create lasting impact. By giving each month, you provide steady, reliable support that helps children and youth count on opportunities and care throughout the year. It is simple, convenient, and allows you to make a difference in a way that grows over time.
Explore Legacy Giving
A legacy gift is a thoughtful way to continue the good you have done. Many supporters choose to include Durham Children’s Aid Foundation in their Will, or name the Foundation as a beneficiary of a registered plan or life insurance policy. A gift of any size can help shape brighter futures for generations to come.
