You can help, and GiveTEN makes it easy.  

The economy is struggling and families are overextended. While we’re all searching for ways to simplify, charitable organizations remain desperately in need.

“Instead of fighting for dollars in an economic downturn, nonprofits ought to be looking for ways to work together while continuing their mission.”

- Margaret McKenna, President of the Walmart Foundation

GiveTEN is a simple concept for a complex time. It’s an all-for-one charitable program that pulls together ten different organizations — giving you an opportunity to benefit TEN groups at once! Whether it’s donating $10, volunteering for 10 hours or provideing 10 items, you can help, and GiveTEN makes it easy...

We have numerous GiveTEN partners in various areas of Metro-Detroit who would be happy to welcome donated items. Please contact Lori Naseef to arrange a pick-up, meet-up or drop-off at giveten@comcast.net or 248-420-8816.

If you do not live in the Metro-Detroit area or if you live out of state we welcome items in the mail or would be happy to help you locate groups in need of such items in YOUR area.

With the barrage of requests hitting our mailbox every day, it’s difficult to figure out which deserving entity you’ll donate your dollars to. With the Give Ten approach, you can choose to donate as little as $10, and you’ll be helping ten charities at once!

The best part? provideInc will handle the distribution of every donation equally among its flagship organizations. Whether you donate $10, $20, $30 or even $500, you’ll be making a difference for a variety of very worthy groups.

Other Dollar Donation Options:

• offset a group’s travel expenses by donating a gas card
• donate a restaurant or retailer gift card to be used as a raffle prize
• purchase and ship 10 soccer balls for $100
• contribute toward veterinarian bills for an animal rescue

Already reached your charitable giving limit? We understand. But that doesn’t mean you can’t commit to Give Ten. Many of our partners need volunteers on site for special events, or to write letters to potential benefactors.

Consider making it a troop, team or family affair so everyone can be involved. These organizations will benefit greatly from the gift of your time. We have many one-time or on-going opportunities available, see detailed information in the links below.
