Donations
Support St. Vincent de Paul Fond du Lac by giving in the way that works best for you, whether that is making a secure online donation, mailing a check, donating gently used items during posted donation hours, or scheduling a furniture pick up by calling the thrift store. Your donated goods help stock the store and your financial gifts help fund programs that assist local neighbors in need. The donation center accepts many clean, safe, saleable items such as clothing, shoes, baby items, housewares, seasonal decor, small working appliances, and furniture, while certain items cannot be accepted due to safety, space, or disposal limitations, including many large appliances, TVs and computers, mattresses and box springs, hazardous or flammable materials, and other bulky or unsafe goods. The page also shares options for planned giving, such as leaving a legacy gift through a will or trust or by donating assets like stock, real estate, life insurance, or retirement funds, and notes that SVDP is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit so donations are generally tax deductible under IRS guidelines.
