How To Help
Donate
There are several ways to support CCS, depending on what works best for you:
-
One-Time Donation
A simple way to make an immediate impact. -
Recurring Monthly Donation
Becoming a monthly donor is a great way to provide dependable funding to CCS, even if it's a small contribution like $10, $20 a month. -
Donor-Advised Funds (DAFs)
Set aside funds for charitable giving and distribute them over time. Learn more here. -
Planned (Legacy) Giving
Include CCS in your will, trust, or estate plan to support the community long-term. Learn more here. -
Gifts of Appreciated Assets
Donating stocks or other assets can be a strategic way to give. Learn more here.
100% of all donations stay right here in Campbell County, supporting neighbors, friends, and community members you may see every day.
You can also choose where your donation goes—simply indicate a specific program, and 100% will support that area. General donations are used where the need is greatest across all CCS programs.
Every dollar you give directly supports people in our community.

Shop at the Seconds on the Avenue
