How To Help
CCA welcomes financial contributions and in-kind donations as well as volunteers . Contributions from individuals are a critical source of unrestricted funds, which enable CCA to better serve the community, reduce reliance on incarceration and advocate for more responsive policies.
Financial contributions
Contributions to Center for Community Alternatives (CCA) are deductible under section 501(c)(3) of the tax code.
You can make a tax-deductible contribution to support CCA's work by mailing your check, payable to the Center for Community Alternatives, in care of Marsha Weissman, CCA, 115 E. Jefferson St., Suite 300, Syracuse, NY 13202. To receive a receipt for tax purposes, please include your name and address with your check.
Online donations can be made via Network
for Good, a secure website that processes credit card donations. Please
use the link on the left.
Many companies participate in a matching gifts program for employees. Please inquire at your company to see if it will match your gift.
For information about giving securities, planned gifts, memorial/tribute gifts or bequests, contact Marsha Weissman, Executive Director, at 315-422-5638 ext. 218 or mweissman@communityalternatives.org
To receive a copy of CCA's financial statements, you may write to the NYS Office of Charities Registration, 162 Washington Avenue, Albany NY 12231 or email CCA requesting a financial statement. Be sure to include your complete address.
Thank you for your support. Together, we are building safer and fairer communities.
IN-KIND DONATIONS
We welcome gifts of books, CDs, clothing, office equipment and more. Feel free to contact us with any and all possibilities!
Contributions of new or used professional clothing to aid clients as they seek employment are particularly useful. CCA's clients, both young people and adults, are building law-abiding lives with very limited resources.
We will acknowledge your support and, if you wish, add your name to our mailing list. In addition you will know that you have helped to build stronger and safer communities.
To offer an in-kind donation, contact Marsha Weissman, Executive Director, at 315-422-5638 ext. 218 or mweissman@communityalternatives.org
