Donate to CARA!

Make a one-off or regular donation to CARA

 

Demand for CARA's services has more than quadrupled over the last ten years!  We need to secure funding to enable us to respond to the many victims and survivors of sexual violence and child sexual abuse who need our support - now and in the future.   

 

  • You can make a one off  or regular monthly donation through our  Just Giving* page .   

  • You can make a text donation.   Just text CARA and the amount you'd like to donate to 70085 (so, for example, if you'd like to donate £10, text CARA 10 to 70085).   This costs the donation amount plus a standard rate message.

  • You can send a cheque, payable to CARA to Mailbox 302, Communications House, 9 St John's Street, Colchester CO2 7NN.
  • If you are a UK taxpayer don’t forget to Gift Aid your donation, as this will mean CARA will get an extra 25p for every £1 you donate.  You can do this through Just Giving, or by completing a gift aid form.

Your donation can be as little or as much as you can afford.  Every donation helps!

 

Thank you so much for supporting CARA's work!

 

*We choose to use Just Giving to collect donations for CARA.  Just Giving claims gift aid on CARA's behalf - saving us time on administration.
