How You Can Help

You can support Mimi's House through your time, talent, and treasure.  Your financial gift supports our mission and enables us to provide for the greatest need at any given time. Mimi's House is a 501(c)3 charitable organization and your gift is tax-deductible.

Help us provide support and resources to those impacted by the child welfare system. No donation is too small.

Donate

Your financial gift enables Mimi’s House to run their many programs and helps fill the gaps in tangible items we may not have in stock when needed. Consider a recurring gift, monthly or annually, for maximum impact. Donations can be made online or by mailing a check to Mimi’s House Family Advocacy Center – 701 Grand Ave. Waukegan, IL 60085. If you would like to make a gift of securities or to make a legacy gift, please contact Kerrigan McNulty at kmcnulty@mimishousefac.org for more information. Don’t forget to check with your employer about their matching gift program!
