Mt. Pleasant Home had a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner for residents last week. We are thankful for all the residents, staff, and our Board members that are part of the Pleasant experience that is Mt. Pleasant Home.
Yesterday was Give Day.
• Did you know that Mt. Pleasant Home is a non-profit charitable organization? We can take monetary donations to help fund low rents, meals, and other services for our residents. Our endowment helps support lower rent for residents. We try to use grants and other funding sources as well, to keep our costs down. We are part of the Riverbend Collaborative that helps provide lower food costs for our meals and allows us to operate a small pantry for those needing to use The Emergency Food Assistance program (TEFAP).
• Along with monetary donations we can accept other items to support our residents. If you have a TV, dresser, nightstand, framed artwork, adult clothing, recliner, or dorm fridge that you need to find a new home for, think of us! We can also take smaller items like unused hygiene items, books, puzzles, and other household items and use them for BINGO prizes or simply give them to residents who might be in need. We can also use your pop cans to redeem them and put towards our resident/staff account for Christmas.
• Please call to arrange drop-off of any donations 563-582-4144.
• We can also utilize volunteers for activities, transportation, and other support for our residents.
Think of Mt. Pleasant Home for any donations you are willing to share. Every little bit helps us continue to provide an affordable, safe, social community for our residents. Serving Dubuque for over 150 years!
We are a registered 501(c)(3) charitable foundation, so your donation is fully tax-deductible.
