How can you support WVCCC?

Hold a Wish List drive: Your company, church, or community group could hold a drive for a specific item or variety of items.  Often this group selects one theme for their drive.

Throw a party: Have the price of admission to the event be an item from the Wish List.

Adopt WVCCC: Periodically throughout the year, bring items from a specific category.  For example, in February bring craft supplies, in June bring medical supplies, and in November bring household cleaning supplies.

For more information about our current needs and how you or your group can help,

please contact our Community Relations office at 623-344-3515.

Thank you for helping make a difference in the life of a child affected by abuse!
