What You Can Do
On a daily basis, people visit our website, read about us in the media, or hear about us secondhand. They reach out, asking how they can help support our mission in the Cheyenne River community. We have so many ways to help:
All donations are tax-deductible, and every contribution—regardless of size—is needed and deeply appreciated. Below, learn more about the many ways you can make a real difference in the lives of Cheyenne River’s children!
Monetary Donations
These types of donations are so important, as they allow the organization to apply your gift where it is most needed. However, if there is a specific program that you would like to support, we are more than happy to fulfill that request. You may directly choose the area you would like to support when making a donation using our secure donation form below. There are many ways to make a monetary donation: through purchasing wares or products of an organization, supporting a capital campaign, remembering an organization in your Last Will and Testament, or by sending a direct donation for general operating purposes.
Donor Advised Fund Giving
It’s easy to make a gift to the association through a donor advised fund (DAF). If you have an account with Fidelity Charitable or Schwab Charitable use the form below to make a gift conveniently from your account. Fill in the institution, the designation (how the funds are to be used) and the gift amount.
In-Kind Donations
The term “In-kind” relates to the actual donation of goods or services to an organization. This type of donation opens up a lot of avenues for those who wish to support CRYP. Take a look at our Amazon.com needs lists for the Main Youth Center, Cokata Wiconi Teen Center, Family Services program, and general Cheyenne River Youth Project needs. If you have items to donate, please fill out our in-kind-donation-form below. You will receive an email acknowledgement for your in-kind donation so please be sure to check your spam if you don’t receive it in a timely fashion.
If you have any questions about the form please do not hesitate to contact us at (605) 964-8200.
Planned Giving
Remembering the Cheyenne River Youth Project in your Last Will and Testament is a way to protect your legacy as a supporter of our programs and services. While the subject of Planned Giving may seem uncomfortable, or even unnecessary to think about, many people are spending the time to consider it now, so that their families can have comfort knowing exactly what their loved one would have wanted. CRYP is so appreciative of our supporters who are committed to ensuring that their support lives on. If you have any questions about Planned Giving, please feel free to contact us at (605) 964-8200.
Donate Stocks
CRYP welcomes and encourages you to consider gifting marketable securities (stocks, bonds, mutual funds, etc.). There can be significant tax advantages through this type of gift. If this is something you would like to pursue, please contact Executive Director Julie Garreau at (605) 964-8200 or julie.cryp@gmail.com. She will provide you with the necessary information to make these gifts.
