Matching Donations

The Circle of Service Foundation has awarded the CCAC with a matching challenge grant.  Between August 27, 2007 and August 26, 2008, all new, non-governmental donations to the CCAC will be matched dollar for dollar. That means if a new donor, or someone who hasn’t donated in three years, sends $50 to the CCAC, the Circle of Service Foundation will contribute an additional $50!

Tax-deductible cash donations to the Chicago Children’s Advocacy Center provide funding to support and expand the CCAC’s existing programs. The CCAC’s programs use a strengths-based, comprehensive family support approach that builds on the assets and positive characteristics of a family and their environment. The CCAC helps families address the problem of sexual abuse by also helping families access much needed social services within the community. The goal of its programs is to provide children and their families with the services they need to begin the healing process.
