BCAR Cares

During the month of January, BCAR is collecting monetary donations in support of Street Reach. Donations will be used to purchase meals for the homeless in Brunswick County. 

Street Reach is a nonprofit organization that helps the homeless in Brunswick County by offering shelter, food, and other supplies. 

To make a monetary donation, call 910-754-5700 or complete the DONATION FORM.

BCAR receives several request for donations and involvement. Do you volunteer for, work with, or know of an organization that BCAR should partner with as a part of our BCAR Cares program?

Complete the form here.

There are some rules about who and/or what BCAR can partner with. You can check that out in the Policy Manual. All requests for help will be taken into consideration by the BCAR Cares Task Force (a group of BCAR member volunteers) and approved by the Board of Directors.

Are you or a fellow BCAR member that you know making a difference in our community? We want to hear about it! Whether you are donating to a non-profit or cleaning your local beach, your volunteer work deserves to be celebrated.
