Friends of HMI Monthly Giving
Your support as a Friend of HMI monthly donor helps provide our young people with access to not only mental health services, but to basic needs such as toiletries and clothing, to social services, and to education, workforce development and arts & culture programming. No monthly contribution is too small.
Planned Living
HMI will work with each individual to create a personalized road map of donation opportunities throughout their life through our Planned Living initiative.
Employer Match
Did you know many companies offer a matching gift program to encourage philanthropy among their employees? And that some companies will even match to spouses and retirees? By simply completing a matching gift form, you may be able to double, or even triple, the impact of your gift! Contributions of any amount help support LGBTQIA+ youth all year round. Check with your employer today to see if they provide matching donations.
Volunteer Grants
Many companies offer volunteer grants, turning your time and effort into tangible funds for the causes you care about. These programs encourage employees to volunteer in their communities by providing monetary grants to organizations where they regularly give their time. The grant amount is often tied to the number of hours volunteered. Check with your employer today to see if they offer this impactful way to support HMI! Learn more
