The Columbus Violence Reduction Initiative

1. Make a donation. You can go to this link, they can make a donation to the Columbus Violence Reduction Fund. 100% of these funds goes to support the work of CVR, meeting many of our “small-big” needs. They can also mail a check to Cityview Columbus, 1150 W. 5th Ave with “Violence Reduction” in the memo.

2. In-Kind donation. We are always in need of gift cards, which might include: uber/lyft, bus passes, kroger, walmart, or similar gift cards. This helps meet a few of our most urgent needs: food, clothing/uniforms, and transportation. These donations can be mailed to 1150 W. 5th Ave, 43212 or we can arrange a time to pick them up.

3. Referrals. We are always looking for partners to help meet the needs of our participants. If any of the churches have connections to hotels, motels, temporary housing, auto-repair or some other business that could help make an in-kind donation or provide us with services at a reduced-cost, we’d love to connect with them! Please contact Molly Robbins at MARobbins@columbus.gov with any referrals.
