Donate a Vehicle

The Durham Crisis Response Center accepts vehicle donations through a secure site provided by the Vehicle Donation to Any Charity Program.

Donate Goods or Services

The DCRC shelter houses over two hundred women and children every year, requiring lots of odds and ends to keep the household running. DCRC relies on gifts from the community to make stays at the shelter as comfortable as possible.

Professional services, such as painting, plumbing, electrical work, landscaping and more, are extremely helpful and allow us to provide more services directly to clients. If you can mow the grass, fix a leaky sink or handle a hammer, we have a job for you. Please contact us at shelter@durhamcrisisresponse.org for more information.
