Donations & Fundraising
While many of our programs are funded through grants, Meals On Wheels receives only partial funding and the Cancer Resource Center receives no federal funds at all. Donations and fundraising help us to cover the areas where federal monies are either limited, or not provided and contributions are greatly appreciated. Donations may be to a specific program or to be used in our General Fund.
Combined Community Action is a 501(c)3 organization. Charitable gifts made to CCA are considered to be tax deductible contributions as by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) but if you have tax questions, please speak with your accountant or tax expert.

Continue the legacy of a loved one through Memorial Giving with Meals on Wheels Rural Capital Area.
We have all searched for a thoughtful and loving way to express our continued sympathy and continued love of a deceased relative, neighbor or friend. One way to do this is by making a memorial gift in the name of someone who has touched your life in a special way. Each donation goes directly to supplying meals to seniors, one of the fastest growing segments of our population.
