How You Can Help a Crime Victim

There are many ways your donations can help a crime victim and many creative ways you can donate!  From participating in our holiday giving campaign, to donating an item to our annual Crime Victims’ Rights Reception auction, to throwing a fundraising party with NCVLI as the designated charity, to signing onto our website any day of the year to make a donation - every penny and every effort counts and makes a huge difference for victims!  Recently one the members of our Board of Directors, Lisa Zauner, got creative and raised almost $300 for NCVLI just by wearing jeans!  Click hereto read more.

If your workplace has a giving campaign, please consider designating NCVLI.  No giving campaign at your work?  Start one!  Imagine what we could do for victims if all of our supporters got creative in their fundraising efforts!
