How to Make a Gift
Your support is pivotal to the Center for Healthy Minds to create a kinder, wiser, more compassionate world.
Did you know that flexible gifts are a crucial complement to realizing grant-supported work? When a major opportunity emerges, flexible funding is crucial to support the essential operational framework needed to efficiently and effectively carry the project to fruition. In addition, data has the potential to answer new questions after the original grant ends. Your gifts play a major role in realizing the Center’s most innovative projects, by supporting areas of greatest need!
