Making the dream of a better life a reality.
For almost 100 years, Aviva Family and Children’s Services has reached out across Los Angeles’ many communities providing quality comprehensive social services to meet the needs of changing times and a diverse population.
We continue to transform lives every day, but before children and their families can turn to us, we must turn to our supporters. With your gift, we can continue fulfilling our daily mission to provide a safe home for an abused and neglected child; a quality learning environment for an at-risk teen; affordable child care for a struggling single mom; and counseling for a family that needs to overcome the pain of incest or domestic violence.
Thank you for your interest in making the dream of a better life a reality for Aviva’s children and families in crisis.
There are several ways to make a donation to Aviva:
Online: So that you can make an online gift securely, we have partnered with PayPal (an Ebay subsidiary). Simply click the Donate Now button.
Call: If you prefer, you can call and make a credit card donation over the telephone. Call our Development Department at 323.876.0550 ext. 1105.

In addition, there are several kinds of financial contributions you can make to Aviva Family and Children’s Services:
Tributes and Memorials - Making a gift through a Tribute or Memorial allows individuals or groups to make a contribution that will help others while honoring a special occasion or the memory of a friend, relative or colleague. Aviva Family and Children’s Services will send a card to the honoree or bereaved on behalf of the donor and list the tribute in our newsletter.
Matching Gifts - Many companies will match, double (or sometimes triple) the value of employees' personal gifts. If your company participates in a gift-matching program, ask your human resources department for details on making a matching donation.
Stock and Real Estate Gifts - By donating appreciated assets, you can make a lasting contribution while receiving tax benefits such as charitable income tax deductions and capital gains tax savings. Please check with your financial advisor or attorney before you proceed.
Pledge - You can pledge a gift to be given on a specific date/month. Your gift may be paid as a single sum, or by installment, within your chosen timeframe.
United Way - You can designate Aviva Family and Children's Services (United Way member #14474) as the recipient of contributions you make through United Way.
Planned Gifts - Gifts through your estate can provide important financial benefits to you and are an enduring legacy of your concern for our community. Planned giving opportunities include a bequest through your will, charitable gift annuity, life insurance or trust by designating a specific dollar amount or percentage, specific property, or anything remaining after providing for your family. Planned gift vehicles are used to build long-term stability at Aviva Family and Children’s Services so that generations to come can continue to benefit from your kindness and generosity. Please check with your financial advisor or attorney before you proceed.
