How Can I Help?

As a nonprofit, Lekotek receives donations from foundations, corporations, employee giving programs, civic groups and individuals. With an annual budget of $420,000 (of which 90% is used for direct services to families), every donation makes a difference. You can make a difference with a donation in any amount or consider giving of your time as a volunteer. 

Lekotek is registered with GuideStar.org, a Web site that lists program services, financial statements and other information on charities.  Click here to read the GuideStar report on Lekotek of Georgia.

 


Monetary Donations

We welcome donations in any amount.  Your contributions are used to support the wide variety of Lekotek programs for children with disabilities and their families.

Cell Phone, Pager, and PDA Donations

Lekotek is partnering with CollectiveGood to recycle cell phones, pagers, and PDAs.  If you have spare cell phones, pagers or PDAs sitting on a shelf or in a drawer, you can recycle them here in an environmentally and socially responsible manner.  CollectiveGood will make a donation to Lekotek for each phone, pager, or PDA you donate!

Computer Donations

Donated computers are loaned to families or used at Lekotek.  Loaned systems are loaded with software that Lekotek leaders have chosen especially for the child who will be using the system.  Loaned systems include any accessory devices the child needs to successfully use the computer.

We accept donations of PCs that are Pentium 3s or better and that have CD-ROM drives and sound cards.  We are always interested in color laptops with CDs.  Macintosh Power Macs or above with CD are also needed.

If you have a computer that you would like to donate to Lekotek, please call our office at (404) 633-3430.  Your donation is tax-deductible and we will provide you with a receipt along with our thanks!
