Ways to Give

Your charitable donation to Centerstone enhances and supports our mission to deliver care that changes people’s lives.

Donations can be directed to support specific designations within Centerstone or to our area of greatest need (Changing Lives Together Fund), which allows Centerstone to provide care when, where, and how it is needed most. Thank you for considering a gift to Centerstone!

Centerstone’s Endowment

While all gifts to Centerstone contribute to our mission, endowments are meaningful as they provide a perpetual source of funding, since the principal is invested and only a portion of the earnings is spent annually. Centerstone’s Endowment is currently comprised of named funds. We are deeply honored when an individual or family wishes to establish a permanent fund in support of Centerstone. A fund may be established with a gift of $25,000 or more. Individuals may also make gifts to support a current fund.
