Many of you have asked about donations to COLONTOWN/PALTOWN when a loved one passes away; “in lieu of flowers,” in memory of, or in general to give back or to honor someone. There are many ways this can be done.

In Memory Page
Families who wish to direct donations to PALTOWN can request a personalized "In Memory Of" page on our site. The page can include photos, text, and links, as well as a donation form. This option allows families to specify how donations can be used and offers a customized link that is simple to communicate. Please contact Nancy Seybold to discuss an In Memory Of page and to see examples.
Dedicated Donation
This is the most common way of giving. Simply indicate the dedication on our donation form. Your gift will support all our programs for patients and caregivers.
Matching Gifts
Many companies offer a dollar-for-dollar matched percentage of the total amount you donate to any non-profit 501(c)(3) organization. This is a great way to double your donation. Check with your company’s HR department for specific guidelines.
