As a not-for-profit social
service agency, Parenthesis Family Center is dependent on your assistance. Every
contribution you make to us is an opportunity to make a difference in the life
of area families. If you have not already done so, please consider helping out!
We accept donations of stocks and bequests as well. Many employers match
charitable contributions made by employees. Check with your human resources
department to see if your company will match or double the impact of your gift.
