Ways to Give

"We make a living by what we get. We make a life by what we give."

It is supporters like you who enable us to serve 12,000-15,000 individuals and families experiencing housing insecurities each year. There are many ways you can support HK—every gift stays right here in Wichita and brings incredible value to many lives. Thank you for your support.

Monetary gifts

Making a monetary gift is easy and can be done in any of the following ways:

  • Donate online

  • On the phone at (316) 264-9303

  • In-person or by mail at 829 N. Market, Wichita, KS 67214

Monetary gifts directly support our programs including shelter, housing, and supportive services such as Operation Holiday. They are also an efficient way to give as they enable us to purchase items in bulk, often at a discounted rate. We accept credit and debit cards, checks or cash.

Other ways to give financially include:

Make an honorary or memorial gift using the donate options above or set up a memorial fund for a loved one who has passed.

Many companies match employees’ charitable contributions dollar for dollar or more. Visit this database and talk to your HR representative to find out if your donation qualifies for a match.

Among other benefits, when you give stock to a nonprofit, you can deduct its fair market value from your taxable income.

Gifts of up to $100,000 can be made from a retirement account to a nonprofit annually.

Gifts of homes, farmland, commercial buildings, land, and more have their own specific and significant tax benefits.

HumanKind Ministries maintains an account with the BAIRD Group to receive gifts of securities. HumanKind Ministries will authorize the sale of a stock gift as soon as possible after the gift is received. Securities that are publicly traded are valued at market on the date sold. When making a gift of securities, we kindly ask that you notify Dawn Shepler via email Dawn@HumanKindWichita.org or at 316-264-9303 x115. Please list the type of stock you are gifting and the approximate number of shares.
