Donate

It takes approximately $338.00 in donations to help a CLCW family adopt a child out of foster care. We expect to help our clients adopt more than 60 foster kids each year but cannot meet this goal without the help of donors like you.  

Make a One-Time Donation. Large or small donations are welcome. To make a one-time donation please contact us at 425-409-9290 or click here.  

Text to give!  You can now donate to the CLCW directly from your phone!  Simply text "donate kids" to (609) 212-0627.

Provide on-going financial support.  Become a DEFENDER!  We call anyone who commits to supporting the CLCW on a regular basis in an amount of at least $82.30 per month (as an homage to Psalm 82:3 - "defend the weak and the orphan..") a Defender.  

As a Defender the CLCW can count on your regular support and you will receive special updates, photographs and inside access to the daily news and needs of the CLCW.  For every Defender donor giving to the CLCW, that's three fewer kids in foster care, and three more kids with permanent families each year. Thanks to our Defenders. 

To sign up as a Defender, or to set up recurring monthly donations of any amount, click here and don't forget to check the box "Make this a recurring donation."

Every child deserves a permanent family. We will work tirelessly defending this basic right. In the Old Testament book of Psalms, the psalmist urges society to “Defend the weak and the orphan and uphold the cause of the poor and the oppressed.” (Psalm 82:3.)  

We are looking for 100 Defenders. Will you be one?

We are currently transitioning to a new donation management system. If you would like to donate to the CLCW during this transition please call 425-409-9290 or send an email to info@thepermanenceproject.org.

Now you can be a Double Defender! Does your employer provide gift matching? The CLCW is a 501(c)3 tax-exempt organization! Though corporate matching funds through employers like Microsoft or Boeing, you might be able to double the impact of your donation!  Please be sure to indicate your employer so that we may contact their gift-matching department.
