Give to Child Advocates

Make an in-kind donation, find out about your employer's matching gifts program or give without actually 'giving' at all through our community giving partners.

Rachel & Gilbert's Closet

Gilbert and Rachel were the first children served by Child Advocates in 1984. You can make a direct impact on the life of an abused child by donating of NEW toys and children’s clothing (covering sizes from birth to 18-years-old) to keep the closet stocked. Contact us for more information.

In-Kind Donation Form
Each contribution - large or small - brings us a step closer to fulfilling our mission. In-kind donations can offset our costs for recruiting, training and supervising volunteers, ultimately allowing us to better serve the children. If you have an in-kind donation that will benefit Child Advocates, please fill out this form (pdf).

• Is your vehicle ready for retirement?
  By donating your used car, truck or motorcycle to Child Advocates through Houston Auto Auction, you can go the extra mile for an abused or neglected child while receiving a tax deduction. Your donated vehicle will be sold at auction, and the proceeds will be used to provide court appointed advocates for children in foster care.
  
  There is no cost to you or to Child Advocates to participate, and towing is available free of charge as well. Court Appointed Advocate Sonny Ahrens will be coordinating donations and will be happy to answer your questions. You can email him or reach him at 713-328-0715.
