Domestic Violence Awareness Month: UC CAREs Boxes
Approximately 20 people experience domestic violence in America every minute. And, 1 in 3 families in Merced County will experience domestic violence. Victims must often leave their abusers with little to no belongings; by sponsoring a personalized UC Merced CAREs Box, you will give survivors their first step towards an independent life from abuse.
Our 10th annual UC Cares Boxes campaign is a heartfelt initiative that aims to provide vital resources, support, and a sense of care to survivors of domestic violence. By participating, you can contribute to the healing and empowerment of survivors in our community.
We would be delighted to have you as a part of this campaign with us!

Please be aware that the deadline to register for boxes to fill up is Wednesday, October 29th and the deadline to return/schedule a pick-up for the boxes is Wednesday, November 5th.
If you have any questions or concerns, please email us at ucmcare@ucmerced.edu.
Thank you for considering this important cause!
