Regardless of the way or amount in which you choose to support Pawnee we are grateful for every gift and every donor. Below is a listing of ways in which you can donate to Pawnee and support our efforts in your community.

Giving appreciated securities

Donating stock is easy and can come with financial or tax advantages, as well as allow you to make a gift with a larger impact, at lower cost to you. Please consult your financial planner or tax advisor to learn how these advantages may apply to your circumstances.  

Making a Gift-in-Kind

The breadth and depth of Pawnee's programs and services creates many unique needs for us. For example, we are always in need of food and snack items to use with our adult and youth community groups, Crisis Stabilization Unit and S.T.A.R.S. Camp. Our youth and adult programs welcome free or reduced-price tickets for activities in the community. Participating in such activities helps our program participants practice self-regulation skills while having staff available to support this effort. If you are interested in making a gift of items or services, please email or call our Marketing and Development Director -- Diane Hinrichs-Toburen at (785) 564-1059.

Make a planned gift

For many, a planned gift is one of the easiest ways to make a substantial gift. The easiest way to make a planned gift is to name Pawnee Mental Health Services as a beneficiary in your will or trust. You may specify an exact dollar amount, a percentage of or all of your residuary estate, or a particular asset (real estate, securities, insurance policies). 

Support Pawnee Mental Health Services through other organizations

Several organizations offer community members the opportunity to support non-profits such as Pawnee through loyalty cards or other avenues. 

Providing an outright gift to Pawnee Mental Health is the most direct way to impact the work that we do, however, there are several other ways you can provide support to us at no additional cost to you.
