THREE WAYS TO SUPPORT OUR WORK
1
The Community Fund
The community fund is our main funding source for so many aspects of Gould Farm’s annual operations. There are work program improvements, facilities upgrades, the clinical staff’s professional development, and the ever increasing demand for financial assistance. Please support the Community Fund if you want your gift to directly benefit our guests’ daily experiences.

The Buildings Fund
We are putting the final touches on furnishing McKee House - one of three guest residences on our main campus. There are opportunities for you to sponsor an entire bedroom, contribute toward common spaces, or cover the cost of individual items. Support current and future guests by donating to the McKee House wishlist.

The First Endowment Fund
Now into its second century, it is time Gould Farm creates its first endowment fund. The Farm’s leaders predict a $10 million endowment secured over the next ten years will provide reliable income which can offset uncertainties in operating revenue, allow for expanding current programs based on Gould Farm’s foundational principles, and provide seed funding for innovative new approaches.
Do you care about Gould Farm’s long-term future role in helping people recover and heal from severe mental illness? If so, Gould Farm encourages anyone interested in endowment to make outright contributions or commitments from one’s estate upon their passing. Gifts of $50,000 or more are entitled to naming funds in honor of a loved one or in the donor’s name.
