Ways of Giving to Family & Children's Service of Greater Lynn

Since 1885, F&CS has been helping families thrive, through programs that strengthen the life skills of families, children and individuals of all ages.   

A charitable gift to F&CS supports important services that contribute to the quality of life of people in the Greater Lynn community. 

F&CS is a tax-exempt 501(C)3 organization, and all donations are tax-deductible to the full extent of the law.  

Gifts of all types can be restricted in regards to their use. 

Annual Giving Fund -  these gifts are not restricted to any one purpose, and are used by the agency where they are needed most.  These gifts have the greatest impact on our ability to maintain local services.   

Memorial Gift  - A gift in memory of someone you love or admire can be a particularly meaningful way to contribute to the Annual Giving Fund.  We will notify the individual or family of this thoughtful and generous gesture according to your instructions. 

Matching Gift – Many corporations participate in an employee matching gift program.  Check with your Human Resources Department to see if your employer will match your contributions to Family & Children’s Service of Greater Lynn, Inc.

Planned or Deferred Gifts: - A gift to F&CS via your estate planning or will leaves a lasting legacy and provides tax advantages for your family.  A simple bequest via your will is encouraged by F&CS and is the simplest of the deferred giving vehicles.   

Inkind donations are only accepted when
pre-approved by agency staff.
