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.
