At Care Net of Puget Sound, we believe God is in the business of using HIS people to bring the hope of physical and eternal life to those in need.
It’s what we see every day in our centers, across our programs and through the stories of hope and life in the lives of the women and families we serve.
While traditional financial donations are always appreciated, there are many other creative ways you can be a part of our mission and make a lasting impact. From corporate giving and meeting immediate client needs, to gifting non-cash assets and planning for the future, your unique contributions help us provide essential resources and support to families facing unplanned pregnancies.
Discover how you can partner with us in these non-traditional ways to help bring life to women, children, and families in need.

Meet a Client Need
A study found that 73% of women chose to have an abortion due to financial challenges associated with the pregnancy. One of the ways Care Net of Puget Sound seeks to remove those financial barriers is by providing practical resources (such as car seats, diapers, formula, etc.) to moms, dads, and couples!
When you purchase an item from one of our clients’ needs lists, you are helping parents receive the support they need to choose life, parent confidently, and thrive as moms and dads!

Giving a Non-Cash Asset
Making a non-cash gift can be a cost-effective way for you to increase your potential impact and experience significant tax savings.
Examples of non-cash assets are stocks, real estate, business interests, life insurance, and retirement benefits. To learn more about how donating a non-cash asset could be a beneficial option for you, please contact our Development Director Jennifer High at jhigh@carenetps.org or 253-235-4701.
IRA Charitable Distribution
Donating from your IRA or another type of retirement asset to a charity can be an extremely smart tax-saving plan. Funds in an IRA have never been taxed, and when you donate an asset to a qualified charity like Care Net of Puget Sound, no taxes are taken out on the back end either. This means more savings for you and allowing you to make a larger gift! Additionally, a qualified charitable distribution (QCD) can help you avoid an increase in taxation by removing income that would otherwise hit your annual gross income (AGI). If you are 70½ or older, an IRA charitable distribution is an excellent way to partner with us!
Contact our Development Director Jennifer High at jhigh@carenetps.org or 253-235-4701 to discuss if gifting from your IRA may be a strategic choice for you.
