Domestic violence doesn’t just impact individuals—it affects families, workplaces, schools, and entire communities. The good news? You can be part of the solution.

If you’ve ever wondered how to support victims of domestic violence in Sampson County, here are meaningful ways to make a difference.

 

1. Make a Financial Donation

As a local nonprofit, U Care relies on community support to keep our 24/7 crisis hotline and emergency shelter operating.

Your donation helps provide:

  • Safe shelter for families in crisis

  • Counseling sessions for survivors and children

  • Legal advocacy for protective orders

  • Emergency supplies and transportation

Every dollar stays in Sampson County and directly supports local families.

Even small gifts make an impact. When combined with others, they create real, life-changing results.

 

2. Volunteer Your Time

You don’t have to work directly in crisis response to make a difference.

Interested in volunteering? Contact us to discuss opportunities.

Whether you have one afternoon a month or a few hours at an annual event, your time matters.

 

3. Shop or Donate at Bee Hive Thrift Store

Did you know that the proceeds from Bee Hive Thrift Store fund U Care’s programs?

When you:

  • Donate gently-used clothing or household items

  • Shop for affordable treasures

  • Tell a friend about the store

You’re helping provide shelter, counseling, and hope for survivors in our community.

It’s shopping with purpose.

 

4. Spread Awareness

Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is talk about it.

  • Share U Care’s social media posts

  • Attend a community awareness event

  • Invite someone to volunteer

  • Keep our hotline number in your phone

You never know when someone you care about might need it.

 

Be Part of Something Bigger

For over 30 years, U Care has been serving Sampson County families facing domestic and sexual violence. That work continues because community members step forward.

When you support U Care, you’re not just donating or volunteering. You’re helping someone find safety. You’re helping a child sleep peacefully. You’re helping a family rebuild.

Together, we can make Sampson County a safer place for everyone.
