Hope Chest

Our Hope Chest program provides donated household essentials to our residential members. Your contribution will become part of a bundle so that a member has the kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, and other items he or she needs to make their house a home. Donate new, unopened individual items or build a complete hope chest with your donation.

Vehicle Donation

Unlike other car donation programs, we give your donated vehicle directly to one of our members to drive to work, school, and other obligations. We prefer new, gently used vehicles with little or no body or mechanical flaws. The owner of the car must have the title to the vehicle at the time of donation. Contact our fundraising director today to give a youth or person with a disability a new level of independence.

Donated Housing

Donated Housing allows individuals to live in their own home with supports that come right to their door. Parents, relatives, and guardians will often donate their homes to CAU in order to keep their loved one in a home that is comfortable to them. CAU works diligently with anyone who wishes to donate their home and provide in-home supports for the occupant

Tree of Life

Remember a loved one or special occasion by purchasing a leaf on CAU’s Tree of Life. This is a perfect way to memorialize a loved one or a special milestone like an anniversary. You can have a personalized message for years to come on the Tree of Life at our main office in Elizabeth.

Cost of a Leaf: $50.00

Engraving: First 25 Characters Included
*$0.25 for Each Additional Character

Tribute Cards

Would you like to tell someone you’re thinking of them? Consider sending them a tribute card from Community Access Unlimited!

You let us know who you would like the tribute card(s) sent to, and we will take care of the rest. We can also send you the supplies to attach your own message in each card.

Cost for Tributes: 1 Card for $5.00 or 3 Cards for $10.00.

CAU hosts several annual fundraising events throughout the year. We need community partners like you to get involved! Check out our calendar to see what’s coming up.
