With the current need to remain safe and limit contact with large numbers of people, Lane Senior Support Coalition would like to suggest a way to do good while choosing gifts for family and friends.

Sometimes we find that those we wish to honor with a gift already have an abundance of things. In this case, consider making a gift donation to the Lane Senior Support Coalition’s Senior Emergency Support Fund that will help a low income senior in Lane County remain healthy, housed and most importantly, independent. Your gift recipient will receive a letter stating That you have made a donation in their honor with best wishes for their special occasion. No gift amount will be disclosed. As the donor, you will receive a think you letter which will serve as your tax receipt with our best wishes as well. It’s so easy and in this time of sheltering, safe and simple.

Here are some examples of what your gift donation can do for a senior facing an Emergency Need which is unable to be met by other community resources. Typically, the senior will be paying something toward the expense and the funding from the Senior Emergency Support Fund will help make that amount manageable.

To make a gift donation, please provide:

1. Your name, mailing address, and your email address, if you wish to share it. We do not sell out trade any donor information.
2. The name and mailing address, or email address of your gift recipient and the amount of your gift. If you wish to make multiple gifts, please send us one list.
3. You may send your gift and details of the request to us electronically or by regular mail:

Electronically – Payment can be made on our website, www.lanessc.org, using our secure PayPal button. Please include a notation with your payment that this is for a gift or gift list.
By Mail – to Lane Senior Support Coalition (LSSC), 859 Willamette St, Suite 500, Eugene OR 97401. Please include your check.

If you have any questions, you may contact Lane Senior Support Coalition by phone at (541) 525-1474 or by email at: administrator@lanessc.org.

Thank you on behalf of the Lane Senior Support Coalition Board and needy seniors in Lane County.
