Financial Support & Donation Drives

Make a Matched Donation:

Give During the Giving Challenge
Happening noon to noon, April 15-16.
The Giving Challenge is an exciting 24-hour online giving event that connects about 700 nonprofit organizations with passionate donors and community members to support diverse causes and create enduring local impact.
Your donation to the clients of CPC will go further thanks to The Patterson Foundation, who will contribute a 1:1 match for unique donations, up to $100 per donor, per nonprofit organization!

Matched One Time or Monthly Giving Through Flanzer
Your personal donation of $5-$500 may be eligible for matching funds through the Louis and Gloria Flanzer Philanthropic Trust, doubling your impact to CPC and the fight against child abuse. Restrictions apply – please review the Trust’s terms and conditions to see if your contribution qualifies!
To create lasting change with an ongoing contribution that powers long-term advocacy and healing, select the box that says ‘Make This Donation Monthly.’ Your gifts will make a difference for children every day, all year long, with easy and flexible payments that are automated and can be adjusted at any time.
If you prefer to mail a check, please make your check payable to “The Louis & Gloria Flanzer Philanthropic Trust”, write “Child Protection Center” in the memo line, and mail to: 1266 First Street, Suite 4, Sarasota, FL 34236.

Create a Facebook Fundraiser:
By creating a Facebook fundraiser, you’re multiplying your impact by bringing the campaign to the attention of your friends and family. This means that not only are you raising essential funding for child abuse services, but you’re spreading awareness of abuse and our mission, which in turn brings even more children to safety. Here’s how:
Helpful tip: make the first donation to your fundraiser – others are far more likely to give if they see that someone else is already supporting.
Share your fundraiser and encourage your friends to donate. Use the sample posts below to help you share your fundraiser and gather support.
Sample Facebook Posts:
This #ChildAbusePreventionMonth, I’m taking a stand against child abuse by launching this fundraiser in support of @ChildProtectionCenter and the life-saving services they provide. Last year alone, this nonprofit conducted 360 medical exams for children to assess signs of abuse and neglect, provided over 4,200 hours of therapy to survivors, and reached over 53,000 local children and adults with prevention education. I hope you’ll join me in the fight against child abuse by giving any gift you’re able to.
I believe that every child has a right to safety, a right to joy, and a right to simply be a child. You can help provide life-saving services for children who have suffered abuse. Will you join me in support of @ChildProtectionCenter and give the gift of healing this #ChildAbusePreventionMonth?

Gather Needed Supplies:
Financial gifts aren’t the only way you can support our fight against child abuse. CPC is able to accept donations of items needed by our clients, programs, and administrators! An impactful option is to host a supply drive in your place of work, neighborhood, book club, etc.
We are always in need of hygiene products, diapers, art supplies, children’s books, and office supplies (paper, staples etc.). You can also visit the Wish List to view our most current needs.
