Donation Request Form
Soroptimist International of Whitefish welcomes the opportunity to help those in need, especially those within our community.
Working together, these women volunteers raise more than $200,000 each year for charitable projects making a difference for woman and girls, locally and all over the world.
The Thrift Haus
The Thrift Haus at the corner of Lupfer and First in Whitefish, Montana is the financial engine that fuels most of the contributions for our club.
With the generous donations from our community, we sort, stock and resell these gently used goods all with 100% volunteer power by our members.
Donations (clean and in good condition please!) may be dropped off at any time at the east door; signs will direct donors.
Since we’re a 501 C-3 nonprofit, donations are tax-deductible and we provide donation receipts upon request.
