Individual & Corporate Giving
For 20 years, WAIT House has been serving local youth in crisis. We rely on your help to provide life-saving shelter, food, counseling, and services for the homeless youth that call WAIT House home. There are so many ways to give. You can support our mission in the way that works best for you.
Ways to give
Give a gift online
Stock and Securities
Appreciated securities or mutual fund shares that you’ve owned for more than one year make excellent charitable gifts. They provide tax benefits to the donor while furthering WAIT House’s mission. Contact your financial advisor if you are interested in donating stock or securities.
