Since Brookwood accepts no
government funding of any kind, the community relies on the
generosity of the private sector to help build and maintain our
facilities and enterprises. All of our buildings,
furnishings, equipment, vehicles have been donated.
Individuals, foundations, corporations, civic groups, churches and
other groups help us meet our day-to-day operating needs. These
gifts allow us to provide programs and projects that benefit the men
and women who live and work at Brookwood. Gifts to our general operating budget help support our program needs. If you would like to see a list of our “wish list” or specific project needs, please e-mail Joe Mazzu -- mazzu@brookwoodcommunity.org.
Does the company you work for offer matching gifts? You can often double the size of your gift with a matching gift from employer. Most employers match gifts on a dollar-for-dollar basis, but some match 2 to 1 or even 3 to 1. Ask your employer for more details. Click here to search a list of employers who match gifts. (http://www.kintera.org/site/pp.asp?c=7dJBKPNxFqG&b=403233) Please note, this list is not all-inclusive. We recommend you check with YOUR employer to see if they will match gifts. Our friends find that when giving to Brookwood, they receive much more in return. Here is a letter from one donor: As you can see the enclosed check is a “donation” but I cannot help but to consider it an “investment”. In light of the enrichment that my life has received from being part of Brookwood, I cannot see where I could allocate my resources to yield a better return. The “dividends” of joy and peace simply seem to be constantly growing. My emotional “portfolio” demands this kind of balance. Brookwood is truly a life enhancer. Thank you for letting me participate.
