Donate

Give the gift of independence. Fulfilling our mission every day is made possible through the generosity of our supporters. Our broad range of needs provide donors several opportunities throughout the year to give gifts of all sizes.

 

Every fall we kick off our Annual Appeal. The money raised during this time is used to make possible the fundamental elements necessary to continue our programs. Gifts of any size will provide our consumers living with developmental disabilities the tools and independence necessary to live wonderful, rewarding lives.

 

The Josina Lott Giving Tree is designed for those who would like to donate at any time. Donors may purchase leaves on the tree at given amounts and choose a personal message for the leaf. As with all of our fundraisers, 100% of the monies raised from the Giving Tree are used for specific programs and services.

 

Our Wish List is an ode to the odds and ends we need and someone else might be willing to give. This list contains pie-in-the-sky items as well as everyday essentials, and is posted in our agency newsletter and also available upon request. Over the years we have received pumpkins, televisions, a golf cart and money to use toward our annual lawn games - and that’s just to mention a few.

 

No matter what the contribution, your decision to support Josina Lott Residential & Community Services is a gift that will provide hope for a full life for individuals living with developmental disabilities.
