Circle of Caring

The Crisis Center of Tampa Bay is excited to share a new, easy and convenient way that anyone can help ensure no one in our community has to face crisis alone!  The Crisis Center is seeking 100 individuals to become founding members of Circle of Caring, a new monthly giving initiative designed for those who wish to donate to the Crisis Center on an ongoing basis. Circle of Caring members are encouraged to give whatever they can afford - $5, $10, or $15 a month. Participants make a monthly gift to the Crisis Center that helps children and families right in the Tampa Bay area.  

 

The money received through Circle of Caring will help to fund programs such as the 2-1-1 24/7 call center, sexual assault services, family stabilization financial education and assistance program, and Corbett Trauma Counseling Center. Circle of Caring donations will be particularly impactful to those in need of trauma counseling. You see, Corbett Trauma Center currently has a waiting list of people who do not have insurance or cannot afford their deductible.  The people on this list might be your neighbor, a co-worker, or a family member... or you may not know them at all. Many have experienced sexual, physical and emotional abuse. And we know that trauma untreated does not go away.  Asking these families to wait for help because they don't have the resources or they can't afford their insurance deductible is something YOU can change by joining Circle of Caring. 

 

The Crisis Center has been in the Tampa Bay community for over 40 years making sure no one faces crisis alone. But we need YOUR help to continue our work! If you're interested in becoming one of the 100 founding members of Circle of Caring, please visit our donation page HERE and select Circle of Caring from the drop down menu.
