Donate

Every dollar provides care and stability for a child

Donations make it possible for us to offer programs at no cost to families. You can choose a one-time gift or commit to monthly giving, which helps sustain long-term stability. Even a small donation can cover a week of diapers or fund a parenting session for a family in crisis. All contributions are tax-deductible.

Donations can be dropped off at our Ontario center during business hours.

Partnerships & Sponsorships

Work with us to strengthen the community

Businesses, churches, and civic groups can get involved through sponsorships, supply drives, or volunteer events. Hosting a diaper drive or sponsoring a classroom helps ensure children and parents across Malheur County have the resources they need. Contact us to discuss group opportunities.
