Superior Child Abuse Prevention Council (SCAPC)

With Tax season just around the corner there’s an easy way to begin your partnership with CTF. Join the CTF Prevention Partnership with an Income Tax Donation!! Every year, your Michigan income tax form offers you the opportunity to fight child abuse and neglect by donating to the Children’s Trust Fund. By simply writing in the amount of your gift, you can join CTF’s prevention efforts. Your gift will be tax-deductible in the following tax year. We call it “putting your money where your heart is.” But it’s more than that. It’s putting your money toward the one thing that can stop the cycle of child abuse and neglect … PREVENTION.

The CTF is the only statewide, non-profit organization in Michigan dedicated solely to the prevention of child abuse and neglect. Since 1982, the CTF has raised over $80 million and provided support to over 8 million children and families.

There’s a new way for you to help prevent child abuse and neglect…the Children’s Trust Fund license plate.

The CTF license plate can be ordered at any time or when you renew your
automobile license plate. Visit www.Michigan.gov/sos for an application.

The cost of caring is just $35. For each plate sold, $25 goes directly to the Michigan Children’s Trust Fund to help keep children of all ages healthy and safe. 1-800-CHILDREN • www.michigan.gov/ctf

The website has had over 1200 visitors, which is a great result as the website is only a few months old.
