Donate

Community Action is where each one of us offers what we can to help our neighbors and our community, whether it’s a recurring donation, a one-time donation, collecting food or participating on an event committee - we each have a part we can play. Your donations help support LifeWorks’ food programs, family services, immigrant services and the entire mission of empowering our neighbors to achieve their goals for self-sufficiency.

Donate today or check out other ways to help LifeWorks Community Action below.

Neighbors Can Help

  • Help us feed the neighborhood! Food drives bring variety to the LifeWorks Pantry. They also help us provide personal care items and cleaning supplies, which are often difficult to obtain.

    LifeWorks has put together a Resource Guide to help you execute a successful food drive. Please click here to download our food drive kit. In addition, you may download social media posts here to help promote your drive. Before you get started, please call LifeWorks at 518-288-3206 to find out what kinds of donations are most needed.

  • You can also donate food through our Amazon Wish List.

  • Want to make a big impact? Challenge your friends, family or neighbors to make a difference. Proceeds from a neighborhood garage sale or community movie night can be donated to LifeWorks Community Action while also raising awareness about the programs provided here.

  • Your time is valuable. We offer a wide range of opportunities that can work with a variety of schedules.

  • Have an item from our Wish List shipped directly to LifeWorks Community Action. This is an easy way to provide support. You can also support the mission by selecting LifeWorks Community Action as your charity of choice on Amazon Smile.

Your Small Business Can Help

  • Set out a donation can by a register, offer to round up each or donate a dollar from each purchase to benefit LifeWorks Community Action. This is a great way to help out while also raising awareness, which helps us reach people who may need our services.

  • Would you consider allowing your team dress down for a day and donate a few dollars to a cause of your choice, like LifeWorks Community Action?

Corporations Can Help

  • Offering regular volunteers for a few hours each month, or for help with a big project like unloading a food delivery, makes a big difference. Reach out to the LifeWorks volunteer coordinator at volunteedesk@lifeworksaction.org to see how we can work together for our community.

  • LifeWorks holds special events throughout the year such as Thanksgiving Baskets, Interagency Awareness Day and Community Action Month that are designed to help and galvanize the community. To learn about how you can get involved contact, k.nowhitney@lifeworksaction.org.
