Ways to Give

The Beacon

Financial Gifts

Your generosity allows The Beacon to sustain its programs and services to those experiencing homelessness in Dane County.

Care Items

More than 200 people visit The Beacon every day. Help us by purchasing items from our Amazon Wish List and have them shipped directly to The Beacon. The list is updated regularly to reflect current needs.

Due to space and health safety restrictions, we are unable to accept gifts of clothes, food, furniture, artwork or soft toys. We encourage you to bring these items to our friends at St. Vincent de Paul.

St. Vincent de Paul provides our guests with vouchers to shop at their stores. This way, our guests can select items they prefer and have the normalcy of shopping for their own items. It’s just another way we show respect and uphold the dignity of our guests at The Beacon. 

If you have questions, please call The Beacon at 608-826-8040.

Volunteer

Sharing your time and talents is one of the most meaningful ways to give to those that are experiencing homelessness in Dane County. We welcome volunteers who are passionate about helping change a person’s life.

Whether you’re looking to serve on your own, engage your workplace in service, or connect your church/local group to The Beacon, we have a place for everyone!
