There are many ways to support South Lane Mental Health:
COMING SOON! South Lane Mental Health will soon have an online store. You’ll be able to purchase staff-made artwork, self-help books and more and all profit from your purchases will go toward client care. When we’ve got the store ready (estimated April, 2023), this link will take you to it:
Cash Donations:
A financial contribution in any amount supports our mission so together we can restore hope and renew lives. You can donate online through Paypal (see donate button below) or send a check to: South Lane Mental Health, PO Box 5, Cottage Grove, OR 97424
South Lane Mental Health has been serving the Cottage Grove community since 1988 and serves approximately 1300 individuals each year. Did you know that 1 in 5 people will suffer from a mental health issue during their lifetime? That means your neighbor, your friend or even a family member has been, currently is, or will be affected. We give over $275,000 in charitable services each year but this level of service is not sustainable without the financial support of the community. In order to continue to serve everyone regardless of their ability to pay, please consider a donation to South Lane Mental Health.

The Donors Bill of Rights:
Philanthropy is based on voluntary action for the common good. It is a tradition of giving and sharing that is primary to the quality of life. To ensure that philanthropy merits the respect and trust of the general public, and that donors and prospective donors can have full confidence in the nonprofit organizations and causes they are asked to support, we declare that all donors have these rights:

- To be informed of the identity of those serving on the organization’s governing board, and to expect the board to exercise prudent judgment in its stewardship responsibilities.
- To have access to the organization’s most recent financial statements.
- To be assured their gifts will be used for the purposes for which they were given.
- To receive appropriate acknowledgement and recognition.
- To be assured that information about their donation is handled with respect and with confidentiality to the extent provided by law.
- To expect that all relationships with individuals representing organizations of interest to the donor will be professional in nature.
- To be informed whether those seeking donations are volunteers, employees of the organization or hired solicitors.
- To have the opportunity for their names to be deleted from mailing lists that an organization may intend to share.
- To feel free to ask questions when making a donation and to receive prompt, truthful and forthright answers.
