Make a Difference

Treehouse relies on the generous contributions of our community to make our work possible. There are many ways to give; you can become a recurring donor, donate clothing and goods to the Treehouse store, shop our Amazon wish list, include us in your estate plans, give gifts of stock and more.

We invite you to partner with us to ensure that youth experiencing foster care have access to the resources and support they need.

Legacy Giving

“We believe that helping children to become strong, healthy, educated adults will help build social capital and reduce the need for social services in the future. We view the gifts we make to Treehouse as investments in our community’s future.” – Susan, Member of the Treehouse Fostering Futures Society

Your legacy gift can build our community’s bright future.

Including Treehouse in your estate plans is a simple way to make a lasting impact on youth in foster care. You can do so by making a bequest or designating Treehouse as a beneficiary of an insurance policy, pension, trust, 401K plan or IRA.

A financial advisor or estate planning attorney can provide you with more details about these options and help you create the legacy you and your family hope to leave behind.

If you want to know more or have already included Treehouse in your plans, please contact Meaghan Lindberg at 206.735.2055 or [email protected].

Treehouse partners with CARS (Charitable Adult Rides & Services) to process real estate donations to benefit Treehouse. Our program takes any property type (land, homes, commercial) in any location so long as there is equity. If you have a real estate asset costing you money or not being utilized, donating it is a great way to give back and you may even claim a significant tax deduction! Donate today.

Thanks to partners in the community who provide us with generous discounts, scholarships and other donations of products and time, we are able to provide opportunities for thousands of youth each year. Contact us to find the best fit for your donation.
