There are many ways to empower a promising child or an ambitious youth through your time, talent and financial resources. We know that there are many seasons in life. In each, we have different gifts to bring to our community. Please consider different ways you can help a promising child or youth rise to their God-given potential.
Other Ways to Give
Employer Matching & Volunteer Grants
Many employers match charitable donations made by their employees. Some companies also provide grants to nonprofits where their employees volunteer.
That means your gift — or your volunteer hours — may help unlock additional support for Children Rising’s literacy, math, and family support programs.
This benefit may be available through your current employer or the employer you retired from. Check with your employer’s giving program, or contact us and we’ll be glad to help you look.

Cryptocurrency
If you hold cryptocurrency or other appreciated assets, donating them directly can be a tax-efficient way to support Children Rising. Instead of selling the asset first and then giving cash, you may be able to give the asset itself — helping turn your investment into reading, math, and family support for Oakland children.
Children Rising accepts cryptocurrency through Endaoment, a secure online platform that makes non-cash giving simple and seamless.
Giving this way may help you maximize your impact while also providing potential tax advantages. Please consult your tax or financial adviser to determine the best giving option for your situation.

Please make checks payable to Children Rising, and mail to Children Rising, 2633 Telegraph Avenue #412, Oakland CA 94612
Facebook and Peer-to-Peer Fundraisers
Many people like to share their passion for the kids with family and friends. Peer-to-peer fundraising on Facebook is a simple way for you to support Children Rising while celebrating a milestone like your birthday. It’s also a fantastic opportunity for you to share with your family and friends why the kids in your community are so important to you. And Facebook makes it super easy!
