In-Kind Donations

An in-kind donation refers to a gift given to Friends LA in the form of goods or services instead of money. We know what you're thinking: how can you support Friends LA through an in-kind gift?

Host a Drive

A kid needs you. Many kids, in fact. A big way you can help them is by hosting an in-kind donation drive!

Hosting a drive is an excellent way to raise awareness about the challenges Friends LA is working to disrupt. It can also be done year round. Consider collecting:

• School Supplies (K-5th grade)
• Toiletries and Hygiene (from baby to adult)
• Household cleaning and laundry products
• Food and transportation gift cards
• Holiday items such as gift cards or new toys

Pro-bono Services

Donating your time, service, or expertise allows us to provide additional resources to vulnerable children and families. Therefore, we can always use professional support pertaining to:

• photography or videography work
• tutoring services
• legal assistance
• marketing assistance or services
• advertising placements
• website maintenance
• ...and more!

Contact us or call 213.378.0704 if you have a service you’d like to donate in-kind! The tangible expenses of providing your pro bono service can be at least partially deducted on business tax returns.

For more information on making in-kind donations, please email us. If you've already made an in-kind donation to Friends LA and would like to receive a letter for tax purposes acknowledging your tax-deductible donation, please fill out this form.
