The Power of Donation

How We Raise Funds for Our Philanthropic Programs

The philanthropic programs of Assistance League of Las Vegas are funded through several fundraising efforts. All monies donated to the Chapter are solely used for its philanthropic expenses. Because Assistance League of Las Vegas is an all-volunteer organization with minimal administrative costs, you can be assured that your contribution will go directly to someone in your own community who needs and deserves it.

Thrift Shop

Our Assistance League Thrift Shop is staffed and managed entirely by our member volunteers. Funds raised through the sale of merchandise are put towards our many philanthropic programs and operational expenses.

We gladly accept gently used clothing, household items and furniture. Please take a look at our “Top Drawer” section featuring many designer labels.

Our Thrift Shop is open Tuesday – Saturday from 10 am to 4 pm as well as the third Sunday of each month from 11 am to 3 pm.

Individual Donations

Every year we are so thankful for the many people that see our programs as worthwhile and give anywhere between $10 and $10,000. With no paid staff, and our Thrift Shop to support our building maintenance and operational expenses, be assured that 100% of your donation is providing goods and services for children and adults in need. You may specify a program for 100% of your donation like Operation School Bell® or AL’s Closet. Or, your donation can be in honor or memory of someone. In addition to a thank you letter sent to the donor, we will send a letter to the honoree informing of a donation made in their name.
