The City of DeLand is partnering with local businesses to fundraise for The Neighborhood Center of West Volusia as part of the City’s Spare Change for Real Change Initiative.

November 11-18 is National Hunger and Homeless Awareness Week and local businesses have committed to donating a portion of proceeds to the Neighborhood Center.

Spare Change for Real Change is a campaign to educate and encourage DeLand residents to direct their donations to organizations that are actively working to reduce poverty and homelessness in our city. We are calling on residents to help with this collective effort to ensure your donation dollars are making the biggest difference.

Below is a list of all businesses participating and the promotions taking place. We invite our residents and visitors to be a part of the movement. Working together, we can continue to make DeLand a great place to live, work, play!
