A gift of someone in their corner

Support Someone’s Situation

Give someone you care about a steady hand, a clear next step, and a voice when they need it most.

Personal support. Written agreements. Complete discretion.

The difference you can make

Generosity, made personal

One caring act. A real way forward.

Every gift to Action Hub Advocacy Office pays for real, hands-on help for a real person. You can support a friend or family member by name, give anonymously so the person never knows who stepped in, or contribute to our general Community Fund so Carol can help whoever needs it most. Every sponsorship is agreed in writing first, and the details of every case stay strictly confidential.

Support someone you know

Name the friend, family member, neighbor, or coworker you want to help. Carol reaches out to them privately, agrees on the scope of help, and your gift covers the work. You receive confirmation that help was delivered — the details stay between Carol and the person being helped.

Give anonymously

Want to help without being known? Tell us who you want to support and check the anonymous box. The person is told only that a caring supporter has covered their advocacy — your name is never shared with them, and you can stay anonymous on every receipt and confirmation we send.

Give to the Community Fund

Not sure who needs help? A general gift goes into our Community Fund, which covers advocacy for people referred by churches, social workers, and neighbors who cannot afford to pay for help on their own.

Every level makes a difference

A gift that fits your heart.

Choose the level that fits your heart and your budget. Every gift is put to work.

01

Friend in Need

$100

Covers a focused first consultation: Carol reviews the situation, the paperwork, and the deadlines, and leaves the person with a clear written action plan.

02

Helping Hand

$250

Covers the consultation plus preparation of one key document or letter — a hardship letter, an appeal letter, a DMV correction request, or a benefits application.

03

Steady Support

$500

Funds hands-on help with one defined problem from start to finish, including calls, follow-ups, and paperwork until there is a real answer.

04

Walking Beside

$1,000

Supports a more involved matter that takes weeks or months — a foreclosure response, a disability appeal, or a full business formation — with Carol in the person's corner the whole way.

05

Lifeline

$2,500+

Covers comprehensive advocacy across several issues at once, for a person or family facing a crisis on more than one front, including coordination with outside professionals.

06

Monthly Partner

From $25/month

A recurring gift that keeps advocacy available all year. Monthly partners make it possible to say yes when someone calls with nowhere else to turn.

Practical help. Meaningful possibilities.

Sponsor a Program

Want your gift to cover a specific kind of help? Each program has three levels.

Business Startup

Sponsoring a business startup gives someone the chance to turn a skill, a dream, or a side hustle into a real, compliant small business. It is one of the most lasting gifts you can give: a path to income and independence. Carol walks the person through each step so nothing important is missed.

It can be the difference between losing a home and keeping it.

Our confidentiality promise

Their story stays theirs.

Every sponsorship is agreed in writing first. You receive confirmation that help was delivered, but the details of the case stay between Carol and the person being helped.

If you choose to give anonymously, your name is never shared with the person you support. Caring does not have to come with recognition.

Your generosity. Your way.
