ANDREWS CENTER: MAKE A DONATION

WANT TO MAKE A DONATION OF MONEY, GOODS OR SERVICES?

Andrews Center may accept gifts, grants, and donations of money, personal property, and real property for use in expanding and improving the mental health services available to the citizens of our area.

Although the government provides some services for persons with disabilities, due to budget cuts, many agencies that provide these services have had to downsize and eliminate some services. Contributions from the community are needed to fill in the gaps to help address these unmet needs.

For information on making a donation, please contact the executive assistant in the Tyler administrative office – 903.535.7338.

SPECIFIC PROGRAMS

Andrews Center programs and consumers have numerous needs that cannot be met within our limited budgets. A donation could help us provide items necessary to improve the quality of life for many of the individuals we serve.
