Honor/Memorial gifts:

Contribution Cards - PACT creates customized cards (memorial, birthday, anniversary, etc.) to acknowledge a special occasion. Cards include the names of both the recipient and the donor. A minimum donation of $10.00 is requested for a gift of this type.

Bricks - PACT offers engraved bricks that individuals may purchase to acknowledge their support of PACT and/or to honor or memorialize an individual. Each brick is engraved according to the donor’s wishes. A three-line brick (maximum of 15 letters/spaces per line) is $60. Bricks are laid in the walkway at the main entrance to PACT’s building. A gift acknowledgement card is sent with each brick order.

Designations through federated campaigns: PACT is a member agency of the United Way of Central Maryland and participates in the Maryland Charity Campaign, Combined Charity Campaign (#5421), and the Combined Federal Campaign (#8833). PACT also participates in United Way Days of Caring when employees from local businesses volunteer their time at a non-profit organization.

Gifts of Equipment for PACT’s Comprehensive Therapy Center: When an organization provides therapy each year to hundreds of children ranging in age from infancy to adolescence, it does not take long for equipment to wear out. "Our physical, occupational and speech/language therapists work with children with all types of challenges," says Lori Tolen, director of PACT's Comprehensive Therapy Center, "Some of our children need to work on their fine and gross motor skills. Others have hearing and vision impairments and require more sensory input. The types of equipment we need are as varied as the children we serve."

PACT therapists compiled a wish list of equipment that they would most like to have when working with the children. If you are interested in learning more about PACT equipment needs, please contact Jaime Ball, Assistant Director of Development, at 410-298-7000 x1400.
