Our agency holds several fundraisers throughtout the year, but in addition to income derived from these events, we rely heavily on individual and corporate donations to fund our programs.
Here are just a few ways for you to help financially. Just click on the link to send us your information for each event:
- Bowl for Kids Sake (sponsor a lane, collect pledges and bowl, put together a bowling team and challendge others, and more...)
- Give or Pledge a Financial Contribution (support the agency by making and/or pledging a financial gift. You can make a single payment, or spread out your giving over time.)
Remember...most financial gifts are tax-deductible AND if your company has a Matching Gift Program, remember to ask your employer for a matching gift application and send it along with your contribution.

What is a "gift in kind"? Simply, it's a gift of property, services, or another tangible object that benefits the agency. Examples include:
Real Estate/Property, office supplies, office equipment, printing services, gift certificates, automobiles, computer equipment, paper, furniture, boats, and much more!
Gifts in kind are also tax deductible, based upon the value of the item or service provided, but it's always best to check with your accountant or tax advisor to determine the proper amount you can claim.
If you have something you would like to donate to the agency, please call the Traverse City office, toll-free, at 1-800-968-2447, and we will help you with the process.
