In-Kind Gift
We have a running in-kind wish list. You can download a recently updated Word document version, here. We also maintain an Amazon Wish List where you can purchase items and send them directly to us. Any gifts on this list would be much appreciated by SHC clients who are either currently homeless (and being served by our street outreach team) or formerly homeless (and in one of our supportive housing programs). If you want to make a donation, please contact our Community Partnership Coordinator Linda Miller at 704-593-3051 or linda@aplacetoliveagain.org.
Financial Gift
To make a financial gift, you can donate at this link or mail a check to:
601 E. Fifth Street, Suite 255
Charlotte, NC 28202
If you want to make your gift over the phone, please contact Daniel Crow at 704-248-3780 or daniel@aplacetoliveagain.org.
Volunteer
Many other volunteer opportunities are available at Supportive Housing Communities. Some of the most popular opportunities include: mingling with the residents at “Coffee Talk” (happening every Friday morning at McCreesh Place), serving a communal meal, and preparing backpacks or stockings (depending on the time of year) for the children of SHC. But no matter your interest or skills, we have an opportunity for you. Our Community Partnership Coordinator Linda Miller is committed to matching the skills and interests of volunteers with the needs and requests of residents. You can contact Linda at linda@aplacetoliveagain.org if you want to get involved.
Sponsor the Luncheon
SHC’s flagship fundraising event is our annual luncheon, which will be held this year on February 12, 2019, from 12:00-1:00 p.m. at the NASCAR Hall of Fame Crown Ballroom. If you’re reading this, you are invited. To help make the luncheon a success, you can help us find sponsors or serve as a table captain. Sponsorship levels and benefits are listed here. If you have a lead for a sponsorship, please contact Director of Development Louis Negron at louis@aplacetoliveagain.org to discuss next steps. As a table captain, you would be responsible for filling a table of eight (you and seven of your friends, coworkers, etc.). If you want to sign up as a table captain, please contact Development Coordinator Robin Hancock at robin@aplacetoliveagain.org or 704-248-3772.
Legacy Gift
Consider making a legacy gift to SHC. Some of these have significant tax benefits. If you want to discuss the different options, please contact Pamela Jefsen at 704-593-3054 or pamela@aplacetoliveagain.org.
Schedule a Tour or Speaker
If you want to know more about what we do, the first step is to schedule a tour at McCreesh Place (i.e., our Permanent Supportive Housing Complex on North Davidson Street). Or, if you’d rather we come to you, we would be happy to make a presentation to your faith community or work group. To schedule a tour or a speaking engagement, please contact Linda Miller at 704-593-3051 or linda@aplacetoliveagain.org.
