Each year we are approached by hundreds of families desperate for our support. We need your help to provide the programs communities depend on and ask for to create a sustainable future for their children. If
you have never made a contribution to SHI, please consider joining the
many caring individuals who are making a difference in our global
community by giving their support. If you are a long time supporter, thank you! Your support ensures that families in need of our assistance will get the help they need. There
are many giving options to choose from including giving in the name of
a friend or family member, becoming a sustainer by giving on a monthly
or quarterly basis or joining our Legacy Society by remembering SHI in
your will.

Share SHI's efforts to end poverty and deforestation in Central America with your community. You can help spread the word about SHI's vital work by hosting a fundraising/outreach event. Host
a dinner, invite one of our staff or volunteers to give a presentation
in your town, work with your school to create an event that will raise
awareness about the global issues we address-and maybe raise some
valuable funding to support our efforts as well! Outreach director, Sarah Kennedy, would be happy to brainstorm event ideas with you and provide you with the materials you need. Some event ideas are posted here. Looking for informaiton on an SHI event near you? Click here.

Contact SHI if you would like informational brochures and a display holder to share in your community.
