Giving Tuesday - Child Protection Center

Help the Child Protection Center reach our goal of raising $10,000 for the prevention, intervention, and treatment of child abuse this Giving Tuesday!

Giving Tuesday is a global movement unleashing the power of generosity. It was created in 2012 to counteract the spending of Black Friday and Cyber Monday with philanthropic giving to charities in need of support and has grown into one of the biggest giving days of the entire year. It’s a simple idea: a day that encourages people to do good.

For Giving Tuesday this year, the Child Protection Center has set a goal of raising $10,000 for the prevention, intervention, and treatment of child abuse. Every donation and every time someone shares this campaign is a true gift of healing, as the dollars raised will provide life-saving services for children who have suffered abuse.

How can I support the Child Protection Center on Giving Tuesday?

Make a one-time or recurring donation.

You may not be in the medical room, therapy session, supervised visit, courtroom, or personal safety workshop, but these things would never happen without you. If you’d like to further your impact and protect children all year long, consider making your gift a recurring monthly donation.

Dear [NAME],

This #GivingTuesday, I’m giving the gift of healing to children who’ve suffered abuse and I hope that you’ll join me. I’m supporting a local nonprofit, the Child Protection Center, whose mission is the prevention, intervention, and treatment of child abuse. Last year alone, this organization provided 305 medical exams to assess signs of abuse and neglect while also reaching 63,770 children and adults with prevention education- all in Sarasota & DeSoto Counties.

I hope you’ll join me in the fight against child abuse by giving any gift you’re able to. You can give your gift of healing here. Gifts of any amount help provide life-saving services to children in the community.

Thank you for supporting me and this wonderful organization!
