Thank You Calaveras County
Children’s Trust Fund Donors
The Prevent Child Abuse Council
Calaveras would like to thank all of the generous donors who
contributed to the Children’s Trust Fund in the last six
months. Despite very challenging economic times, the spirit
of giving is alive and well. Donations totaling over $14,000
reflect a commitment in Calaveras County to protecting
children from neglect and abuse.
 The donations
support community outreach, education, and resources for
countywide child abuse and neglect prevention programs.
Calaveras Children’s Trust Funds help foster a strong,
proactive community where families receive the
tools
necessary to give their children a safe, healthy, and
nurturing home.
The Prevent Child Abuse Council
Calaveras and countywide partners in prevention are grateful
for the generous support to the Calaveras Children’s Trust
Fund. Together, we are improving children’s lives.
