Donations:

Berkeley Citizens, Inc. is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) agency and 100% of every dollar donated is used for direct services.

Although there is no cure for mental retardation, there is hope for people who have the disability and their families, that they can live a life with accomplishments and success when supported by organizations like Berkeley Citizens. Of the more than 600 individuals with mental retardation served by Berkeley Citizens, most are school age children and toddlers who live at home with family or relatives.

Some of the ways your donation can help us:

Fund activities throughout the year that allow parents of young children to meet with others who share similar experiences caring for a child with a disability.
Provide sliding scale vouchers based upon a family's income to provide trained staff for children with mental retardation to participate in usual summer activities along with typical children.
Provide respite for families to help with the 24 hour, 7 day a week responsibility of caring for a person with mental retardation. Respite is especially critical for elderly caregivers who care for adult family members.
Fund much needed social and recreational opportunities for teenagers and young adults with mental retardation.

Individuals, service clubs, churches, family foundations, employee contribution clubs and local businesses can make contributions. Some donors may prefer to make planned gifts; please consider a gift to Berkeley Citizens, Inc. in your will or estate plan.
