Contributions

Gifts-In-Kind

Aurora provides various supplies to clients. Contributions of these supplies allow us to reserve our budgeted funds for unusual and time-sensitive items. See "Wish List" below of regular supplies needed.

Warehouse or Storage Space

Aurora collects basic furniture to recycle to clients going into independent housing. It is difficult to time donations with clients needs. We currently rent space to store these items and would like to eliminate this monthly expense. If you have some space you could allow us to use, please contact us.

Financial

Financial contributions are always welcomed. Aurora relies on the generous financial contributions of the community. We do not have a national affiliate, nor can we charge a fee for services. We are a small, private, local, nonprofit organization trying to make a big impact in our community. One-time gifts, bequests, memorial contributions, monthly pledges, annual giving, and sponsorship of special events are just some of the ways you can be a regular sponsor of Aurora.

See the "Make a Donation" button below to donate by credit card, debit card or PayPal.

Contact us to discuss any special projects or funding needs.  Monetary donations may be made payable to "Aurora, Inc." and mailed or delivered to 1100 Lincoln Ave., PO Box 74, Evansville, IN 47714-0074.  Thank you in advance for your support!
