Review our Gift Acceptance Policies and Guidelines

Instead of buying a gift for your friend, make a donation to Achievekids in their name! You can print a Donation Certificate that you can include in a greeting card to commemorate a special occasion. Whether it is for a happy occasion like a birthday or a sad one like a memorial, show that you care by honoring the person with a gift that truly matters. Black and white or color certificates are available by clicking one of the links below. There is also a Donation Request form attached that you can mail in to Achievekids with your payment.

Your cash donations give our kids a chance. We operate a very special program that help students make the transition back to public schools or to the least restrictive environments. Every dollar you provide helps us hire special education teachers, therapists and provide key services to those with mental and behavioral challenges.

You can make a direct financial contribution to Achievekids by contacting us in writing, by telephone or with an online payment through PayPal. We can process credit card information or help you make stock transfers.

For more information regarding providing financial support, please contact us at (650) 494-1200 ext. 160. To donate online via PayPal, please click on the button below.

• Car, Boat and Real Estate Donations

You can now donate your used vehicle to support Achievekids. Donate For Charity arranges a free vehicle pickup, handles all the DMV issues, sells the vehicle at auction, and distributes the net proceeds to Achievekids. So if it's time to replace an older car, or if you have a boat and trailer that are just taking up space in the garage, consider making a donation. You'll avoid the headache of selling a used vehicle and receive a receipt entitling you to declare the sale price of your vehicle as a tax deduction. When you're ready to donate, simply call Donate For Charity toll-free at (866) 392-4483 or donate your car online.

• Planned Giving

Put Achievekids in your will. We have experts that can work with you to help you and your attorney or accountant make this important life long contribution. We are attempting to add a key group of people to this important club. This will help Achievekids make a continuing impact on the community over the years.

The planned giving approach also provides an opportunity to support our endowment. This can make a significant difference for our kids.
