DONATE

A calm moment in a hospital room. A second chance inside prison. One partnership that changed everything.

You Are Part of This Story

Salim Dellicker is 11 years old. Medical procedures used to terrify him.

Then his assistance dog, Parlow, climbed onto the bed.

With her weight across his chest, Salim calmed. He stayed still for his IV. Later, he called it “the best surgery ever.”

That moment happened because of supporters like you.

One Dog. Two Lives Changed.

Before Parlow became Salim’s partner, she trained alongside an incarcerated ABEL trainer.

Inside prison, that work created purpose and connection. Outside prison, it created independence, calm, and safety.

That care now lives with Salim.

How You Can Help

Tribute donations are a way to honor someone special. Donations can be made in honor, celebration, or memory of a person or animal. Notification of your donation can be delivered immediately by email.

You can donate by mailing a check to EENP to the mailing address listed at the bottom of the page. You can also use the donate form below to notify us that you are putting a donation in the mail. The form will give you instructions on where to mail your check.

A great option for providing ongoing support is to set up a recurring donation. Our recurring donation form (below) allows you to choose to have your donation charged to your credit card monthly or annually (even daily or weekly!). Due to credit card processing fees, we do require a minimum $5 donation for each transaction online.

If you would like to make a recurring donation from your checking account, please contact your bank to set up a scheduled billpay to EENP using our mailing address.

EENP gratefully accepts donations of stocks and mutual funds. A gift of stock that you have owned for more than a year can be a great donation, as you avoid tax on the capital gain by gifting it to EENP.  In addition, your charitable deduction is equal to the full fair market value of the stock, generally deductible up to 30% of your adjusted gross income. Please consult your tax professional to confirm benefits for you.

Visit our stock donation page to learn more about the simple two-step process to donate stocks or mutual funds.

If you are 70½ or older, you can make distributions of up to $100,000 per year from your traditional or ROTH IRA account to EENP.  Your gift may count towards your IRA’s annual Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) and could be excluded from your gross income. If you are under 72 or still working, there may be additional tax consequences. Please consult your tax professional to confirm benefits for you.

Your retirement account provider will be able to provide you with complete instructions for making a qualified charitable distribution. Please be aware of any year-end processing deadlines imposed by your retirement account provider when considering your donation.
