Organize an Angel Fund Drive to show compassion and support for patients in need

Little things can make a BIG difference!

Your gifts go a long way in providing assistance to Rogers’ patients for hardship outside of direct treatment costs, 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.

How to host a drive:

Please let us know when you plan to hold a gift drive and which Rogers’ location you’d like to support. Contact Linda Shieble in the Foundation office at 262-646-1652 or linda.schieble@rogersbh.org.

1. Set out a drop box with our Wish List flyer.
  Display the flyer next to a drop box (barrel, box, etc.) and invite your friends or colleagues to bring in items during a designated timeframe. Have the items delivered to the Rogers location of your choice.
2. Purchase items from the Amazon Wish List.
  At check-out, choose to send items to yourself for an in-person drive or ship items directly to Rogers Foundation (Oconomowoc) or to the clinic location of your choice.
3. Collect cash gifts
  Outright donations help us fill in the gaps and support our patients with larger valued items that inhibit treatment, such as travel expenses and utilities. Collect cash or checks made out to Rogers Foundation, or encourage online donations designated to the Angel Fund.

All items must be new
No games with themes of violence
No items containing Latex or sharp edges
No items or gift cards with religious themes (Christmas/Hanukkah/etc.)

Choose gifts among the following categories:
monetary gifts | gift cards ($10) | clothing & comfort | everyday supplies

Who can host a drive:

Anyone can host a gift drive! Here are a few examples:

*PLEASE NOTE: The Foundation makes every attempt to distribute an equal amount of gifts to patients within our home-base of Wisconsin. Any unused gifts from the Holiday Drive will continue to be given to patients by their clinical team after the season is over. Donations to Rogers’ locations outside of Wisconsin will be distributed to patients under the discretion of that location’s clinical team.
