Creative Ways to Help CCAP
Workplace Giving
CCAP is a proud member of United Way of Rhode Island! If your workplace offers a giving campaign through United Way, please be sure to designate CCAP as a recipient for your charitable donations.
If you are a State Employee, you may contribute to CCAP through the State Employees Charitable Appeal (SECA).
Goodsearch!
Raise money for CCAP simply by searching the Internet with Goodsearch!
The three ways you can earn money through Goodsearch —
- Search the internet
- Shop online
- Dining out
Here’s a quick explanation–
- Goodsearch: Search the Internet with a patent-protected, Yahoo!-powered search engine (just like you’d search on any other search engine), and Goodsearch will donate about a penny for nearly all searches to your selected cause.
- Goodshop: Shop at one of more than 2,800 participating stores (from Amazon to Zazzle) and a percentage of what you spend will be donated to your cause at no cost to you. Additionally, Goodshop lists more than 100,000 coupons and deals which may save you money while doing good!
- Gooddining: Dine at one of 10,000 participating restaurants around the country and a percentage of what you spend will go to your cause – again at no cost to you.
Dress Down Days!
More and more companies and organizations are offering their employees the opportunity to participate in “Dress Down Days.” a day set aside for employees to wear jeans or casual attire in exchange for making a donation to a designated non-profit organization. If your company offers “Dress Down Days” and you want to designate CCAP as the non-profit organization that receives the donation, please contact Elizabeth Spehalski, Communications Manager, at 401.562.8353 or by email at espehalski@comcap.org. In addition to helping your community, you will also create awareness in the community about CCAP and the work we do.
Host A House Party
Would you be interested in hosting a house party, an informal way of introducing CCAP to your friends and family? It is a great way to raise awareness for CCAP and no one is obligated to donate. It is a simple way for you to lend a helping hand in your community while widening CCAP’s circle of friends. Please contact Elizabeth Spehalski, Communications Manager, at 401.562.8353 or by email at espehalski@comcap.org for more information.
Give the Perfect Gift
Have a friend, parent, child or co-worker celebrating a special occasion? Instead of searching for something they don’t have – give them the gift of helping those in our community who are in weathering difficult times. We will send them a handwritten note and information about us to let them know of your thoughtful gift.
Remember Someone Special
Remember a loved one who wanted a simple legacy — to make their community a better place by making a gift in their name. We will send a handwritten note to whomever you designate to let them know of your thoughtful gift.
Gifts of Stock
CCAP welcomes gifts of stock, bonds, and other appreciated assets. If you would like to donate securities, please contact Elizabeth Spehalski, Communications Manager, at 401-562-8353 or by email at espehalski@comcap.org.
Your Legacy

Volunteer
There are many ways to support CCAP that go beyond a financial gift. If you have an area of expertise and want to lend your time, please contact us at 401.562.2282.
We are currently looking for volunteers for our CCAP Garden! Tasks include planting, weeding, seeding, and turning soil. Last year, our garden provided hundreds of pounds of produce to our clients, as well as a variety of vegetable plants for them to grow at home. Contact 401.562.2282 for more information.
Follow us on Facebook and Twitter and help us get information out to the community about the work we do.
