Get Involved with MIRCI

Support MIRCI financially

Each and every year MIRCI relies on generous donors to help us provide a way forward for youth and adults who are navigating the emotional uncertainty of mental illness and are experiencing or at risk for homelessness.


We’re launching a new, monthly giving program, A Way Forward, and we invite you to participate and be a part of the solution. Will you join us in our effort by supporting MIRCI with a monthly gift of ANY amount? Here are some ways your generosity provides a way forward:

  • $25 monthly, provides medication for an individual treating schizophrenia
  • $50 monthly, provides sheets, pillows and a comforter for individuals exiting homelessness
  • $125 monthly, provides housing starter kits with 20 essential kitchen, bath and laundry items
