Organize a Collection for Torture Survivors
Organize in your place of worship, with classmates, friends, or family to make a meaningful contribution to the torture survivors who seek help at CVT. This type of contribution can be made in various ways, such as holding a special collection once a year or asking that donations be made in lieu of birthday or anniversary gifts. College students have also held events on campus to talk about CVT’s work and collect donations. Volunteering in this way is perfect for groups looking for a way to support CVT together!
