Here are just a few ways former patients and families, organizations, and passionate individuals have raised funds and friends for the Foundation:
It’s easy to create a fundraiser on Facebook and encourage your friends to give to a cause that matters to you.
As a non-profit organization, Rogers Foundation will receive all donations directly from Facebook. Facebook charges no fees for donations made to non-profits, so all dollars raised will go directly to support our life-changing initiatives.
Set up your facebook fundraiser.
When you hold one a “Give for a Better Day” gift drive, you bring joy to patients at Rogers.
Donations of new, unused items or monetary gifts will help equip patients with a variety of items to enhance their journey to recovery. Direct questions to 262-646-1646 or email.
Here’s how others have supported patients during the Holiday season:
Christine Toson’s Board Commitment and Tribute Companies’ Holiday Donation
Holiday Gift Drive event impacts community inside and outside of Rogers Behavioral Health
Howards Grove High School students support Rogers in Sheboygan through gift drive
Each year, individuals, organizations, retailers, and corporations hold clothing or toy drives for children served by a wide variety of non-profits. Many people do not realize the extent of patients at Rogers whose severity of syptoms will make it unlikely that they will return home in time for the holidays, or whose family resources will make it prohibitive to participate in the gift-giving season.
Give patients the gift of a smile this Holiday season!
Complete details about hosting a gift drive, stories of giving, and the impact your gifts make to Rogers’ patients can be found HERE.
*We make every attempt to distribute equal amount of gifts to patients. Any unused gifts will continue to be given to patients on an individual basis by their clinical team after the holidays season is over.
Little things can make a BIG difference!
Your gifts go a long way in providing assistance for hardship outside of direct treatment costs. Donations of new, unused items, gift cards or monetary gifts will provide for personal neccessities such as accommodations (hotels/rent/supportive living), transportation (gas, airfare, bus/train), utility bills, groceries, clothing, and other daily necessities.
Help improve the lives of our patients on a personal level.
Help fill the emotional toolkit!
The use of play and games in therapy is proven to be an effective way to help cope with intense emotions and behaviors. At Rogers, patients learn how everyday items can be used as powerful therapeutic tools to calm their minds and bodies.
