CASA has been providing affordable housing for homeless families and individuals for more than 25 years. But we’ve hardly done it alone. We rely on group and individual donations, volunteer work, and other efforts from people like you to make it all happen.

How to Support Your Community Through CASA
Below are five ways you can get involved with CASA to support the Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill communities.
1. Donate
In 2018, we collected almost $530,000 from 500 donors, surpassing our goal by nearly $20,000. Those donations helped put 137 new families into a home.
There are four ways to contribute a donation to CASA.
- Online. An online donation is the quickest and easiest way to support your local community through CASA. Any amount can make a difference, be it enough for one night or one month.
- By mail. A donation can be made by mail by sending to:
CASA
P.O. Box 12545
Raleigh, NC 27605
- Via stock transfer. To make a donation through a stock transfer, just share the following information with your broker:
CASA Tax ID: 56-1778714
Account number: 43218498
DTC #: 0702
- Planned giving. Become a member of the Forever Home Society to leave behind a donation in your memory.
2. Volunteer
We’re always looking for people to volunteer their time around our offices or the nearly 500 residences we maintain. Administrative duties, landscaping, maintenance, event planning, and welcome gift basket preparation are just some of the ways you can volunteer your time.
3. Advocate
In addition to public donations, we also rely on local, state, and federal funding to carry out our mission. And securing the necessary funding is made easier when we get support from people like you.
Attending meetings and public hearings related to housing along with contacting Congressional representatives and the General Assembly regarding affordable housing solutions are all ways you can lend your voice to our cause.
4. Smile
When you shop online through Amazon, you can have 0.5% of your purchase price directed to CASA at no additional charge. Just enroll in the AmazonSmile program and choose Community Alternatives for Supportive Abodes (CASA) as your charity of donation.
5. Give your feedback
