What Do We Need?
Bridge to Hope accepts many forms of donations to help people from our community get back on their feet. One way of supporting our mission is through item donations.
You can donate directly through our Amazon Wishlist or call us to discuss donating items in person. The items we frequently need are listed below, but we are happy to accept any donation we can help survivors with.
Financial Donations
Financial donations allow us to continue our mission. We aim to provide survivors with support and relief from abusive situations. We partner with the Community Foundation of Dunn County who granted us an endowment fund. Contributions are tax-deductable and managed by a board of directors as well as trusted administrative support.
Four Ways to Donate
Cash Donations
Cash can be sent in through check or online through our PayPal.
Retirement Assets
Anyone 70+ can make a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD), which comes with tax benefits for yourself.
Appreciated Securities
Stocks, bonds, and mutual funds are a way to support that efficiently benefit us long term and avoid capital gains taxes.
Planned Giving
Including Bridge to Hope in your will, trust, or as a beneficiary to retirement assets provides money for the future without currently affecting your finances.
