DONATING TO
GIFTS FOR THE HOMELESS, INC.
There are now three
options for making monetary contributions to GFTH – via check, credit card
(MasterCard or Visa) or online (MasterCard, Visa, American Express or
Discover).
Checks and Credit
Card Donations
GFTH has implemented a
lockbox with PNC Bank to provide greater security and accountability for
contributions. All checks (made payable
to “Gifts for the Homeless, Inc.”) and all completed forms for donation via
MasterCard or Visa should be sent to the lockbox at PNC Bank for
processing. The address is:
Gifts
for the Homeless, Inc.
Department
Number 0046
Washington,
D.C. 20073-0046
Please note that the
address is not a P.O. Box but a Department Number. Also, please do not send checks or credit card donation forms to
our Treasurer or bring them to the Used Clothing Drive.
We would appreciate it if
you would keep a record of all checks and credit card donation forms you send
to the lockbox and would send a copy of the list to Jeff Hydrick, the GFTH
Treasurer, at the end of December. His
address is: Jeff Hydrick, Wilmer Cutler Pickering Hale & Dorr, 1875
Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20006 or Jeffrey.hydrick@wilmerhale.com
As noted on the credit
card donation form, a 2% transaction fee is charged on each credit card
donation; GFTH receives the balance after the fee has been deducted.
Online
Donations can be made to
GFTH online on the Donating page of our website, www.gfth.org. A 3% transaction fee is charged on each
online donation; GFTH receives the balance after the fee has been deducted.
