Annual Fund Drive Moving to March!

Domestic Violence Services of Cumberland & Perry Counties (DVSCP) is moving our end-of-year Annual Fund Drive to March to take advantage of the Partnership for Better Health’s Match Madness Campaign.

In 2023, the Partnership’s received over 2,190 donations totaling more than $709,000. With $150,000 in matching funds from the Partnership and generous sponsors, the total raised was $859,000 to support 48 nonprofits in our community!

The Partnership provides foundation funds to match gifts made by individual donors during the month-long public fundraising effort. They match dollar for dollar for the first $1,000.  After that, the amount matched is based on the total that DVSCP is able to raise throughout the month of March.

Donations made through this program are still 100% tax deductible, and there is no minimum contribution to participate. Donations may be made online or via check but must be made directly to the Partnership for Better Health during the month of March. All contributions from donors will be given directly to participating organizations, like DVSCP.

If you plan to support our Annual Fund Drive, please consider holding that gift until March to maximize the amount raised for survivors at no additional cost to you!

Additional information on how to donate will be provided prior to the start of the Campaign, so check back here in early 2024 to learn how you can support our agency.  All donations go towards the free and confidential services DVSCP provides to those experiencing abuse in our community.  Services include 24/7 crisis hotline, emergency shelter, adult and youth counseling and support groups, legal and medical advocacy and accompaniment, and education and community outreach.

Any gift of any size makes a real difference for our clients.  Thank you for considering to support our agency’s Annual Fund efforts.
