CPR is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization. Your contributions are tax deductible and can be claimed as a legal write-off on your annual tax return. CPR relies on the contributions of individuals and organizations who are supportive of the cause. We will provide an appropriate receipt to you for all contributions. CPR believes in reducing government involvement in the family, and therefore CPR seeks no taxpayer funding from the government for its operations. If you need any further information about the various opportunities to contribute, please email us at info@cpr-mn.org.

Contributing to organizations with same/similar values and goals can be an important way to ensure societal change that is consistent with your beliefs. Thank you for your partnership with us.

Annual memberships:

Annual sponsorships:

Annual sponsorships are designed for individuals and organizations. The contribution can be designated for general operations, or the project of your choice.

Monthly free-will offering:

An offering is taken at each meeting to help defray the costs of the meeting. The money is placed in the general fund for routine operating expenses required to help keep the organization flourishing.

United Way designated pledge:

Many companies run United Way campaigns and employees feel either obligated or compelled to participate. United Way provides a marvelous option for you to designate your pledge to the organization of your choice.

CPR is not listed as a United Way agency, because we do not receive regular funding from the United Way General Fund. We only receive funding from United Way if you “write in” our organization as a special pledge. If you believe in the mission and activities of CPR, please consider designating your United Way pledge; simply “write in” your special designation to: Center for Parental Responsibility, Roseville, MN, and United Way will take care of the rest.

Please pass the word around to your co-workers that CPR is worth contributing to! If your United Way campaign has already been completed, it is never too late to change your pledge. Contact the local United Way office to change your pledge.

Donating your expertise: volunteering your time, talents, services:

The family court system can drain people financially. CPR understands that finances are tight for some of you. There are other ways to contribute. CPR has many volunteer opportunities available. We seek to match your talents to specific projects underway at CPR. We welcome and appreciate whatever short term or long term assistance you can provide. We have projects that take a little time or a lot – whatever matches your schedule and talents.

Donating office items: phone cards, paper, copy cards, furniture, office space:

Sometimes it is easier and more comfortable to contribute something specific that you have already purchased. Please call us if you have something that you think might be beneficial to the organization.

Donating give-away’s:

CPR has received TWINS game tickets, caribou coffee gift cards, and other items to be designated as prizes for drawings for participation, meeting attendance, or other extra special appreciation for those who have assisted the organization in outstanding ways.

Automobile purchase referrals:

If you or anyone you know is interested in purchasing an automobile, we ask that you start out by first looking at Saxon Ford (225 University Ave, St Paul MN 55103). Please call Kathy Heitzinger (Business Development Manager) at 651/222-0511 and tell her you were referred by the Center for Parental Responsibility. Kathy has experienced the bias against one parent to benefit the other in the family court system; Kathy has experienced how the fit non-custodial parent is stripped of parental rights without cause, and she supports the efforts of CPR. If you find what you are looking for at Saxon Ford, and purchase your car there, Saxon Ford will donate $100.00 to CPR.

Automobile donations:

For automobiles that need repair and can be resold, CPR will receive the car as a donation. The car will be fixed, resold, and the money from the sale of the car will be given as a contribution to CPR.

Grants:

If you have any connections to any organization that provides grants to non-profit organizations, we appreciate any referrals for available grants.
