Donate to CDS
Your donations enable us to continue supporting families in our community.
Here are some ways you can make a difference
MONETARY DONATIONS
We are currently in the process of fundraising for our new Interface Youth Program in Gainesville. Built in the 1950s and procured by us in 1990, our original shelter building has been a home, a dentist's office, and finally, our shelter. It is time to retire and update! Help us build a new shelter! You can also donate to a specific program!
BUSINESS SPONSORSHIPS
We're seeking business partners to enhance our program and create unforgettable family experiences. We need gift cards, museum tickets, and family outings like coffee dates. If your business can offer meals or locations for our families to enjoy for free, let us know! We'll promote your business as you help us create lasting family memories.
DONATION BY
