One-time Gifts… make a difference today
A one-time gift helps Great Northern help others in the community “right now.” Let us know if you’d like your gift to be made in honor of or in remembrance of a loved one or friend when you donate today. Donate online here or download a donation form and mail it along with your check to: Great Northern Services, 310 Boles Street, Weed, CA 96094.
On-going Gifts… make a bigger impact over time
On-going gifts help us plan and expand our services for community members like children and seniors who need them most. Join our special group of dedicated donors who support Great Northern’s work by offering a monthly, quarterly, or annual gift through automatic credit/debit card deduction.
Payroll Deductions… helps provide continuity of services
Payroll deduction donations ensure that Great Northern has a steady and predictable stream of income to dedicate to programs that assist the most vulnerable members of our community. It’s an easy way to donate and it spreads your contribution throughout the year, as these automatic, tax-deductible contributions will be collected from each paycheck.
Donor-Advised Funds… ensure a legacy of caring
A gift through your donor-advised fund or family foundation allows Great Northern to sustain or expand programs significantly. If you are fortunate enough to be able to demonstrate your compassion and commitment to service in community on this larger scale, please consider supporting our work.
