In these challenging economic times, charities are more vulnerable as disposable income shrinks. We at Capital Associates, Inc. want to remind you that all of us, individually, provide the funds that make the good work done by thousands of charities across the country possible. Below are some organizations that we support. Through our personal relationships with these charities, we have seen the good work done and the dedication of those directing these organizations.

As you contemplate your charitable contributions for this year, please consider those highlighted below.

Keep watching this website for updates as we continue to look for ways to assist these and other charities throughout the year.

Remember, today is the "Time to Share."
