Real Estate
Please consider donating property, a home, or any form of real estate to help us with our mission. Your property can help support the safety net La Puente provides to the neediest in our community.
Cars
La Puente programs are in need of reliable vehicles. Cars are a huge necessity for our day-to-day operations. Serving the whole SLV requires all of our programs to be in many places at once and reliable vehicles allow us that capacity.
Stock
Donating stock is an excellent way to support the future of La Puente. By donating actively growing stock, you can help ensure that we have the support system in place to continue serving the most vulnerable in our community even through tough financial circumstances.
