Donate Now!Join The Guidance Center's Monthly Giving Club

Giving even a small amount every month can make a big difference. By joining The Guidance Center’s Monthly Giving Club, you can have monthly donations made directly from your credit card to provide critical ongoing support of all of our programs. For people who can’t make a big one-time donation, this is the way to go! When you join the Club, the amount you specify is automatically charged to your credit card around the 15th of each month. That makes this program the "greenest" way to donate as it eliminates the need for checks and reduces administrative and fundraising costs — your donation goes further in supporting our efforts!

Why Join The Guidance Center's Monthly Giving Club?

  • It's convenient and efficient.
  • It's 100% tax deductible.
  • Your name will appear in our Annual Report.
  • You'll get special updates about The Guidance Center in our monthly e-newsletter.
  • You'll receive a summary in January of your donations for the past calendar year.

Membership in the Club is flexible - if your financial situation changes and you need to put your pledge on hold for a while, we can accommodate you. For more information on how you can become a member of The Guidance Center's Monthly Giving Club, please contact Alexandra Vanegas in the Development Office at 617.354.2275 x127 or click here to join today!

Donate Now!Make an Honorary or Memorial Gift

Pay tribute to your friends and family by making a gift in their honor or memory. It's a wonderful way to celebrate birthdays, weddings, honor colleagues or remember a loved one. Plus, it's a gift that will give back by supporting the work of The Guidance Center and the children and families we serve.

For each honorary or memorial donation of $25 or more, we will send an In Honor or In Memory card to the person of your choice acknowledging your thoughtful gift (simply check the “this gift is in honor/memory of” option towards the bottom of the online donation page)

For more information, please contact Alexandra Vanegas in the Development Office at 617.354.2275 x127.

Leadership Annual Giving

Each year, Leadership Annual Giving donors provide the important foundation of support necessary to serve more local children and families who are at risk and in need. The loyalty of our most generous donors makes a significant difference in The Guidance Center's ability to tailor services to each child and family's needs, regardless of ability to pay.
