Make an in-kind donation

Nearly 30% of food distributed from our pantries comes from food/personal supply/clothing drives organized by students, community groups, the faith community and neighbors like you.

We accept donations of non-perishable food and gently-used, in-season, and baby clothing at our Bethel Park location on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays 10am-4pm. Please contact us at (412) 854-9120 with any questions.

Volunteer

South Hills neighbors make the best volunteers. Last year, volunteers served more than 17,262 hours, but there’s more work to be done. Join the movement and make a difference.

Put PA's EITC program to work

Your business can make a contribution to support SHIM’s pre-kindergarten scholarships for children to low/moderate income families and receive up to a 90% tax credit. Learn more here.

Matching gifts and workplace giving

Many employers match contributions made by their employees to SHIM. This is an easy opportunity to potentially double your impact and help more people in our community. To find out if your company matches charitable contributions, please contact your company’s HR department. For other questions, contact Seth at sdubin@shimcares.org or (412) 854-9120 ext 109.

Remember SHIM in your will

Please consider including SHIM in your will. Your caring gift, no matter the size, will help ensure that neighbors in the South Hills continue to have a place to turn when they encounter difficult times. If you have included SHIM as a beneficiary of your will, trust, retirement account, life insurance policy, or would like help making your plan, please contact Seth at sdubin@shimcares.org or (412) 854-9120 ext 109.

Give a gift of stock

Giving a gift of appreciated stocks, bonds or mutual funds is another impactful way to support SHIM and may provide a greater tax benefit than giving cash.

Your donation of securities is eligible for a tax deduction and helps you avoid or reduce capital gains taxes and brokerage fees. For more information on potential tax advantages, please consult with your financial advisor. Gifts of securities can easily be made by asking your broker to arrange a transfer to SHIM’s account at LPL Financial. Please provide your broker with this information.
