Donate Goods or Services
Our work in the community and with the thousands of families and children we serve depends more than ever before on donations of goods and services by area businesses and professionals.
Our diversity of programming and the sheer number of people served requires abundant supplies – everything from paper to toothbrushes! We print thousands of copies per month (handouts on parenting information, neighborhood newsletters, substance abuse information, and the like), so paper, inkjet cartridges, and/or printing services are always needed.
Thanks to local media's recent focus on children in poverty, donations of toothbrushes and children’s socks & underwear continue to be donated and distributed to area low income children. You may be surprised to know that many of our families share toothbrushes, and many of our children go to school without socks and underwear. In order for us to continue to meet this pressing need, your donations of these items would be greatly appreciated.
Donations of gas coupons and gift certificates for food or family-centered outings are also needed, as we use these to encourage our high-risk families to attend parenting classes designed to reduce child abuse and neglect and basic budgeting classes designed to help lift them out of poverty.
As is the case with any non-profit, resources are always limited, and we depend on the support of local professionals in the area of marketing, advertising, and business to help us make sure we use our dollars wisely and develop the best strategic plans available.
For more information on how you can help, or if you would like to donate goods or services, please call Melissa Haddow, Executive Director @ (417) 888-2020, ext. 204.
