Give a paycheck contribution through your workplace!
CJDC is proud to partner with Community Shares of Colorado in workplace giving campaigns. Making charitable donations via paycheck contributions is a convenient option that allows incremental gifts to add up over the course of a year.
A paycheck contribution of $1 a day – $5 each work week-adds up to a $260 annual donation! That would allow us to file 21 amicus briefs in support of youth appealing their cases, publish our resource center newsletter for three months, or hold a two-hour training for juvenile defense attorneys who represent Colorado youth in court.
Do you have an employee giving campaign at work? If yes, please choose CJDC as the recipient of your workplace giving pledge. If your company hosts workplace giving fairs and presentations, request CJDC be a featured nonprofit! If Community Shares is not included in your giving campaign, email giving@cshares.org to discuss adding more diversity and choice to your campaign.
If you don’t have an employee giving campaign, let your HR or Community Investment contact know you want to support CJDC through Community Shares. Contact Community Shares to help you start a campaign at giving@cshares.org or 303.861.7507.
Workplace giving is a great way to support CJDC! Our community shares number is 5214.
Thank you for your support!
