The Counseling Center depends upon charitable contributions in order to fund the programs and the charitable services that we provide to the community. Without your contributions, these activities would not be possible. There are several ways to support the Counseling Center:

• Individual giving   
  The Counseling Center's annual "Friends" Campaign is our most important fundraising activity.
  
  To become a Friend, you may send a check to us directly or donate safely online using your credit card. Online donations are securely done via PayPal. You can donate even if you don't have a PayPal account. Click on the "Donate" button and PayPal will open in a new window. Enter your donation amount and click "Update Total". Then click "Continue" in the lower left side of page.

Prefer to donate via mail or fax? Fill out the Donation Form and mail or fax to us. In order for your donation to be included in our 2013 fiscal year appeal, it must be received by June 30.

• Fundraising events 
  During the year, the Counseling Center hosts events for the community. These events represent an opportunity to enjoy yourself while at the same time supporting the Counseling Center.
  
  If you are interested in being notified of these events, please sign up here (Sign-up Form).
  
  
• Planned giving   
  Inclusion of the Counseling Center in your will or estate plan can provide you with a legacy of community support. If planned giving is something you would consider, please call the Counseling Center and tell us that you would like to discuss planned giving to the Counseling Center.
  
  
• Endowment 
  An endowment is the donation of money or property to the Counseling Center. Typically, the donation is invested and the principal remains intact in perpetuity or for a defined time period. You can designate what you would like your contribution spent on, or how you would like it used.

• Giving for a specific Program effort

Donations can be made to support specific programs that you feel are important for the community. Examples of this would be the parenting programs that are offered each year.

• Sponsors  
  The Counseling Center seeks business sponsors for our events. The sponsorships are a key source of funds for the Counseling Center, and in exchange, the Counseling Center endeavors to recognize its sponsor’s contributions and show its gratitude to the community at large.

• Our Wish List  
  The Counseling Center has needs from time to time for items that we can not afford to put in our budget. Perhaps you know of someone that might have contacts in an industry that could help us or offer us a discount. Please contact our Business Manager. We are currently seeking contacts/savings on:
  • Art work for our waiting room walls
  • Two new couches/loveseats for clinician offices
  • A quick scanner for insurance cards
