Donations
in-Kind
There are items that are needed by our clients and programs
that RCL cannot provide because the funding is not there.
Educational videos, hobby materials, computer equipment
and personal items. If a family is unable to volunteer
or make a monthly pledge, they could provide support by
donating some of these items. For every donation, each
family will receive a donation receipt for record keeping
and tax purposes. Contact an RCL representative if you
have potential items for donation and they will inform
you if the item is needed. |
