Make a Cash Gift
The Village Family Services relies on donor support to help us provide life-changing services to children and families in our community.
When you make a donation to The Village, you help:
- Keep our Drop-In Center open so that we can continue to provide critical resources and support to unhoused youth who have nowhere else to turn–a safe place, meals, education assistance for students in shelters, help transitioning to housing, and so much more.
- Ensure that our outreach team can continue distributing emergency supplies at “homeless hot spots” throughout our community.
- Provide coordinated mental health interventions from caring professionals.
If you prefer to donate by check, please make it out to The Village Family Services and mail it, along with this form to:

Other Ways You Can Make An Impact
Gifts of Stock or Wire Transfer
You can make a donation that benefits both you and The Village by giving stock and realizing tax savings, naming The Village as a beneficiary of your donor-advised fund, or via wire transfer. We’ll be happy to work with you and your financial advisor to identify a mutually-beneficial solution. Please notify us of stock gifts and wire transfers at [email protected], or call us at 818.755.8786.
Business Partnerships
The Village can help your company achieve its corporate social responsibility and philanthropy goals. Partnering with businesses is central to our Community Model to End Youth Homelessness. From event sponsorship and volunteer activities, to adopting a space at our headquarters, Drop-In Center or Family Wellness Center, we’ll create a partnership opportunity that’s right for you and your employees.
Matching Gifts
It’s easy to double or even triple your donation with a matching gift from your employer. Many companies offer this incentive; please check with your Human Resource or Community Relations Department.
Planned Giving
Until there are no more unhoused youth or children needing loving homes, The Village will be here. We know that despite the monumental efforts of our organization and many, many others, this will endure. But you can continue to help long into the future.
By including The Village in your estate plans, you're not just investing in our future and the future of the young people we serve—you're also achieving your own long-term financial and philanthropic objectives.
We offer various planned giving options:
- Bequests in your will or living trust
- Beneficiary designations for retirement accounts or life insurance policies
- Charitable trusts
We'd be honored to recognize donors who choose to support The Village through planned giving. Our team is here to discuss how your gift can create a meaningful legacy.
For personalized advice on gift planning, please consult your legal, financial, or tax professional.
In-Kind Donations
We are always seeking in-kind donations for NEW items for children, youth and adults including emergency hygiene kits for homeless youth; school supplies and backpacks for students of all ages; and toys for the holidays.
