Every gift creates new possibilities for youth, families, and communities served by McKinley. Whether you give your time, resources, or future support, you help build brighter futures.
Find the Giving Option That’s Right for You
There are many ways to support McKinley. You can make a financial gift, donate needed items, volunteer your time, or create a legacy — every form of support brings hope to children, youth, and families.
Make a One-Time Gift
Immediate Support
A one-time donation is one of the simplest ways to create an immediate impact. Your gift helps provide counseling, education, basic needs, and safe spaces for youth and families in our care. You can direct your support to a specific program or allow us to use it where it’s needed most.
In-Kind Donations
(Goods and Supplies)
Your generosity doesn’t have to be financial to make a difference. Donating tangible items like school supplies, new clothing and shoes, hygiene products and toys for Toys n Joys directly helps meet the daily needs of youth and families supported by McKinley.
