We appreciate your investment in our kids and our efforts with them.  

Ways to give

Whatever investment you make in our kids and Strive, please consider making an annual commitment. The consistency of this “living endowment” gives us a hedge against the vagaries of stock market jitters and other financial uncertainties. This core group of donors are the backbone of our efforts and sustain our ongoing operations and program needs. You can setup one-time or recurring gifts below:

There are many ways you can invest in our students and strengthen our program!

  • Stock and securities: Appreciated stocks may result in a larger tax write-off than cash! Please consult your tax advisor/CPA. 

  • Gifts of property/real estate:  The very existence of Strive and its success is largely due to donated properties. John Harrison, president of the Willamette company and David Rips president of Younger Optics donated two properties to Strive resulting in the beautiful mini campus we have today! See History page for more info. 

  • Gifts via wire transfer or electronic funds (ACH) transfers 

  • Rainy-day fund:  Donations can be made specifically to our rainy day/investment fund. Having faced financially precarious situations in the past, we continue to aggressively build our rainy day/investment fund so we’ll never be in that situation again. Creation of the fund began in 2009 during the mortgage crisis. Information on the balance and investment strategy of the fund are available for the asking.

  • Creating a fundraiser on Strive’s behalf:  If you would like to create a fundraiser for Strive (perhaps for a birthday or special occasion) please feel free to contact Strive for any assistance!
