Donate

The Phoenix Center (TPC) has been a member of the educational community for the past 30+ years and would appreciate your support. Although TPC receives tuition from sending school districts who place students here, it is not enough to cover the rising costs of extra-curricular, technology, community-based instruction, and other special programs. Therefore, we rely on the generosity of corporations, local businesses, foundations and private individuals like you.

There are many different ways to support The Phoenix Center…  

You can make a one-time donation or a recurring donation (monthly, quarterly or annually). If you are interested in donating to a specific project or fundraising effort, please contact Carolyn Sharaway at csharaway@thephoenixcenternj.org. or (973) 542-0743 ext. 403.

Planned Giving

With this option, you can create a significant legacy by putting TPC in your will and/or following a planned giving strategy. A planned gift is pledged now and gifted at a later date. There are various ways to make a planned gift at no cost to you — such as retirement assets, life insurance, charitable gift annuities, and much more. Some options can give you income now while benefiting TPC today from your intentional philanthropy. Visit our Planned Giving page to learn more.  

Donor Advised Funds

You can also leverage various donor advised funds, which is a type of giving program that allows you to combine the most favorable tax benefits with the flexibility to easily support your favorite charities. If you have a donor advised fund, DAF Direct enables you to recommend grants to this nonprofit directly from your DAF (as long as your DAF’s sponsoring organization is participating). You can easily make your contribution now.

It is always helpful for TPC to be introduced to decision-makers at corporations and foundations who value our commitment and dedication to serving students with disabilities.
