Giving Tuesday is a global generosity movement unleashing the power of people and organizations to transform their communities and the world.

Being a community-based non-profit, the Arkansas Valley Resource Center relies on the support of our community to help continue providing services to victims of violent crime in Bent, Crowley, and Otero county.
Our agency is powered by federal, state, and local grants, as well as donations from individuals just like you. And there are so many other great ways you can support AVRC’s mission!
