Donate

Give in tribute to honor a friend or loved one. Also consider a gift to celebrate those special moments such as birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, and graduations. You can also make a gift in memory of a loved one. When you make a memorial/honor gift, we will send a handwritten card to the persons you want us to notify, informing them of this special tribute (the amount of the gift is not listed).

Koinonia is fortunate to have a group of special donors called our Circle of Potential. These donors agree to give a minimum of $1,000 a year (less than $3 a day) to ensure that people with disabilities can truly lead a life without limits.

Donors automatically become members of the Circle of Potential if they make:

• a one-time gift of $1,000 or more annually
• or make gifts totaling $1,000 or more in a 12 month period
• or have consistently donated to Koinonia for over 5 years.

Circle of Potential donors receive:

• Monthly electronic newsletter
• Invitation to participate in periodic Insiders' Roundtable Calls
• Invitation to exclusive Koinonia client celebrations
• Circle of Potential Certificate & Pin
• A personal contact who can answer your questions throughout the year

Become a Monthly Sustainer by donating as little as $10 a month to support Koinonia's mission to partner with people who have developmental disabilities and other complex conditions. Your support enables Koinonia to provide highest possible quality of life through integrated, whole-person care.

How does monthly giving work? Simply use a debit or credit card and choose your monthly amount. You can change the amount or cancel at any time. By becoming a Monthly Sustainer, you are providing vital support to the people we serve.

Koinonia's Independence Society recognizes the individuals who have thoughtfully made a planned gift through their will, charitable trust, a IRA or life insurance beneficiary designation, or through other planned vehicles. We are grateful for the individuals who have decided to make this ultimate gift to support people with disabilities and their families. There is no minimum gift requirement to join the Independence Society.

If you wish to consider making a planned gift to Koinonia, please contact our Director of Development at (216) 337-0465.

The Peter Nebenzahl Champion Award honors Koinonia Direct Service Providers (DSPs) who display Trauma-Informed Care Techniques when working with people with IDD. In addition to the award, it funds training costs associated with Koinonia becoming a Trauma-Informed Care Agency. Donors can contribute to this cause through the donation form on this page, or by contacting the Director of Development at (216) 337-0465. Click here to learn more.
