Thank you for your interest in donating! Come to the SOAR Center during hours of operation to drop off items or send an email to soar-center@willamette.edu to arrange another time.
Gifts in Kind and other donations, although very valuable and much appreciated, are generally not considered tax-deductible by the IRS (see IRS Form 8283 for further information on claiming non-cash charitable contributions). If you would like a donation receipt e-mailed to you, please contact us at soar-center@willamette.edu. Please note that Willamette University is unable to include the estimated value on the donor receipt. It is the responsibility of the donor to substantiate the fair market value for their own tax purposes.

Willamette Community Resource Program (WUCRP)
The SOAR Center also has a donation collection program, the WU Community Resource Project (WUCRP). Modeled off of the Ashland Food Project, WUCRP eliminates any logistical barriers that prevent staff and faculty from donating to the SOAR Center. Each donor receives a reusable bag to fill up at the beginning of each month. On the first Monday of the month, SOAR Center Coordinators come to each donor’s place of work on campus and collect the donations. This is a simple and sustainable way to contribute to our Willamette community. To sign up to contribute to this program, fill out this form.
We also accept monetary donations.
