Making Gifts
Every house we build requires significant
individual and corporate financial support from a wide variety of donors.
You can partner with us in changing the lives of deserving families in
Madison and Clark Counties.
Kindly send your tax-deductible donations
to Habitat for Humanity, P. O. Box 186, Richmond, KY 40476-0186.

or to talk about the tax advantages of donating appreciated assets,
making charitable gift annuities or remembering Habitat in your will.
 You

Clark Counties online at Habitat for Humanity International's website

within minutes. Our affiliate receives every penny designated to
us at no cost. Your donation will be forwarded to our affiliate on a quarterly basis
Aluminum Cans Build Habitat
for Humanity Homes.
The name may not be creative, but it is
descriptive. If just 1% of the money paid
annually by the aluminum industry for empty aluminum cans is directed
towards Habitat for Humanity International, 250 additional Habitat homes
could be built in the United States each year!
Alcan
is giving Habitat for Humanity of Madison and Clark Counties DOUBLE the
value of the cans collected in our name. Cans
may be dropped off at Alcan, 302 Mayde Road, in the Industrial Park
in Berea. Place the cans (no garbage)
in the dumpster labeled "Habitat for Humanity" next to the guard house. There
are drop off sites behind the City Hall and in front of Union Church.
Cans may be dropped in Richmond at EKU at the Gabbard Building (Van Hoose
Drive) or behind the Student Services Building. Contact our office
for assistance in can collection. Visit http://www.cansfor
habitat.org for more information about the program.
