Caring House depends on cash donations and community volunteer hours to provide survivor support services and comply with grant applications. Victim of Crime Act (VOCA) requires Caring House to contribute a 20% match of VOCA grants we utilize. That can come from other non-federal funding or the value of donated items and volunteered time.
