The support of the community is essential to the success of the
Children’s Receiving Home of Sacramento. We rely on
community support at all levels, but first and foremost, dollars help. It is these financial
contributions that give us the most flexibility in fulfilling the
needs of the 1,200 -1,800 children we serve each year.
Become part of the Growing Hope Club and join a special group of
committed donors that helps kids on an ongoing
basis. Together, we can make a huge impact for at-risk youth
in the Sacramento community and beyond.
Your monthly gift is not only simple and easy to set up, but it
also provides a steady and reliable source of funding for the
Children’s Receiving Home of Sacramento.
If you have appreciated stock or mutual funds – or are required
to take a minimum annual distribution from your Individual
Retirement Account (IRA) – you may be able to offset
applicable taxes by making a donation of assets.
Also, some donors choose to plan an “after-lifetime” gift through
a will, trust or by making the Receiving Home a beneficiary of an
IRA or life insurance policy. We celebrate them as members of our
Hope for Healing Legacy Circle.
To discuss the various asset giving options available to you – or
if you’d like to let us know that you have included the
Children’s Receiving Home in your will, IRA or life insurance
policy – please contact legacy@crhkids.org or call (916)
482-2370 ext. 1205.
At CRH, we understand how much your family members, friends, and
co-workers matter to you. After all, our philosophy is that
“families matter.”
MEMORIALS express your sympathy and respect
for the loss of a loved one. CRH will send a thoughtful
card to the family of the deceased letting them know of your
caring gift.
HONOR GIFTS express your admiration and
appreciation in honor of someone special or a special occasion.
CRH will send an appropriate card to your selected honoree that
may be personalized to convey your good wishes: “Happy
Birthday,” “Congratulations on Your 25th Anniversary,” or an
individual message of your choice.

The Children’s Receiving Home is partnered with a third
party to operate the vehicle donations program. Please
go to the donation page and click on the
vehicle icon.
Vehicles, including cars, trucks, RV’s, travel trailers and boats
with trailers, MUST adhere to the following criteria:
Vehicle must be complete (tires, engine, transmission,
etc.). However they need not be running.
The vehicle must have a clear title. Current registration is
not necessary
We prefer that the vehicle be located within the greater
Sacramento area. Vehicles outside the area will be
considered on a case by case basis.
The following criteria may cause a vehicle to be declined:
Vehicle is located outside the service area
Vehicle is in extremely poor condition and/or not marketable
By donating your vehicle you will receive a tax deduction, avoid
the hassle of selling the vehicle yourself, and, most
importantly, you will be making a contribution to the important
work being done by the Children’s Receiving Home.
On behalf of all of our children and staff, thank you for
considering our agency for your donation!
*Special Note: Due to new regulations, the Children’s
Receiving Home of Sacramento is no longer able to accept any used
donated items. We deeply appreciate the support our
community has demonstrated for the last 75 years and indeed
would not be able to offer the children in need of our
care as many outings, birthday presents and other fun
items and activities without your support.

Immediate Needs
The Children’s Receiving Home’s needs tend to ebb and flow as the
age and gender of children coming through our door is always
unknown. However, the ages of those at CRH tend toward
teenagers and young adults of both genders.
Currently, we are in need of the following items:
Children’s Receiving Home of Sacramento is now
listed as an official KidCents charity on
Kidcents.com. Through KidCents, Rite Aid
customers can visit www.kidcents.com, elect to round
up their Rite Aid purchases, and donate their change to an
official KidCents charity, which now includes us!
