HumanKind Ministries brings people together to provide shelter, food, and other basic needs to between 12,000-16,000 homeless and low-income men, women, and children in Sedgwick County each year. This important work would not be possible without generous donors like you, so please give what you can. Every dollar helps and no gift is too small.

Planned Giving
A planned gift is a contribution that is arranged in the present and allocated at a future date, commonly donated through a retirement place or will, but also through life insurance or even real estate. Please contact us for more information.
Donations
Serving our homeless clients at our three shelters and collecting goods for Operation Holiday requires lots of supplies, food and clothes. At this time, we are only able to accept certain items that are most in need. Donations can be brought to the HumanKind Administrative Office at 829 N. Market during normal business hours, M-F 8:30am-5pm.
Gifts of Stocks/Bonds
You can also support HumanKind Ministries through a gift of stock. If you give stock to a nonprofit, you can deduct the fair market value of those donated shares from your taxable income. Additionally, you get the benefit of not having to pay capital gains tax on the appreciation of the stock’s value since you bought it.
