Child Safety Puppeteers

Your grocery shopping and Ebay sales or donated items can benefit Child Advocates!


By shopping at SPD, SaveMart or Raleys, you can benefit Nevada County's children.  Each of these stores will donate a percentage of your total sale to Child Advocates when you present your rewards card at check out.  It's a no hassle way to benefit our most vulnerable children. To get a card at SPD, simply ask the clerk for a card and select "Child Advocates of Nevada County" from their list or write it in.  For a card to Raleys or SaveMart, email to info@caofnc.org or call (530) 265-9550, Ext. 221, and we will mail you a card. Get one card or get them all!  The more grocery shopping you do, the more you benefit Child Advocates. (Card must be presented prior to payment for groceries.)

Ebay sales or resalable items donated to us can also benefit our programs.  Sellers receive a receipt for their donations and a credit on their fees equal to the donated portion of their sales.  Items donated to us to resell are tax deductible and you are given a receipt.  Click here to go to our Ebay web page to find more information on how you can sell or donate items through Ebay or, if you prefer, you can call our office at (530) 265-9550, Ext. 221, or email to info@caofnc.org.
