How to Give

How are gifts made to Northwest Arkansas Head Start?

Goods, volunteer services, or funds are given by individuals, families, corporations and foundations interested in providing support to Head Start. These gifts help us to comply with the required 20% community funds match and also make up the income needed to run and further develop our program. Donors are assured that their gifts will always be managed and administered in accordance with their wishes, and for the overall well-being of the organization.

A donor may make a gift of any size and may specify how their gift is to be used, or limit their gift to specific programs or centers. Gifts may be in many forms including goods, services, cash, payroll deductions, stock transfers, bonds, bequests, annuities, and in-kind.
