Get Involved

Mary's Home relies on individuals and organizations throughout our community to support our mission and help us help others.

From small donations to large ones, every gift helps a young mother and her baby become a thriving family unit.

Here’s how you can help!

 

DONATE

Gifts and Donations

As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, Mary’s Home is able to accept outright donations of cash, stocks, or transfers from donor-advised funds. Your gifts help us to keep the lights on. 

Even more importantly, they help us care for the mothers and babies in our care, providing needed supplies for daily living and educational opportunities to build strong futures.

Planned Gifts

Like you, we at Mary’s Home like to plan long-term for the future. Your planned gift helps us chart our future and maintain the programs that mean so much to the mothers and babies we serve.

Legacy Gifts

By including Mary’s Home in your will and estate planning, you help assure that your impact will be felt far into the future.

Mary’s Angels Giving Circle - Recurring Gifts

Mary’s Angels Giving Circle is an ongoing donor program designed to enable Mary’s Home to provide a sustained quality of housing, care and educational services to our mothers and babies.

In March of 2018, Mary’s Angels Giving Circle was founded by May & Vincent Smyth with the intent of creating an endowment fund to ensure that the mission of Mary’s Home will continue to grow in service and capacity.

Money raised by the Giving Circle will help sustain an important Mary’s Home program called Women-In-Transition, which helps supplement monthly rent of women who are moving out of the home to transition to living as single parents in their own places.

For their part, those assisted by the Women-In-Transition program must continue to attend Mary’s Home programs that offer counseling and advice on how to maintain the healthy habits and skills learned while residing there. They also need to continue with the schooling or education that will enable them to land – and keep – higher paying jobs.

All who believe in this mission are invited to meet the challenge with responsibility and loving commitment by giving $1,000 per year, for five years. In addition, Mary’s Angels will endeavor to enlarge the circle by encouraging others to join. Active and generous support enables Mary’s Home to provide choices, education, life skills, strong support and encouragement to pregnant women desperate for help who would otherwise have nowhere to turn.

Please consider becoming an Angel by contacting our Executive Director  at 772-223-5000 for more information.

Lindsay Lifetime Of Giving Fund

After 38 years of serving others through their life vocation, Jan and Noel Lindsay will be retiring from the ministry they founded. Since opening their first Mary’s Home in St. Paul, MN in 1983, and then four others, the Lindsays have served God’s will and saved thousands of lives. Guided by their mission of Saving Lives, Two at a Time, our founders opened their fifth and final Mary’s Home in Stuart, FL in 2010. Over the past 11 years, hundreds of expectant mothers have found shelter, support, empowerment and hope through our residential and non-residential programs.

The families whose lives have been saved and changed by Jan and Noel’s passion and vision are thriving today thanks to the support of our generous community. In recognition of their legacy of love and giving spirit, Mary’s Home is establishing the Lindsay Lifetime of Giving Fund to ensure the future success and sustainability of our important mission.

Proverbs 3:27
“Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in your power to act.”
