LSS/NCA relies on private gifts from congregations, individuals, and the community to support the daily needs of our organization throughout the fiscal year (October 1 through September 30).

A gift to LSS/NCA’s Annual Fund is one way you can make a difference in our community -- honoring a loved one, a special memory or moment such as a wedding or anniversary, or a tradition, while helping to secure the future of LSS/NCA.

Support a special need

Each day LSS/NCA’s Annual Fund walks with our neighbors in needs. You may be interested in designating your gift to one of our programs:

• Adoption and Foster Care
• Disaster Response and Preparedness
• Refugee and Immigrant Services
• Youth Haven Camps

Your gift to LSS/NCA makes a difference each day in the lives of people we serve. We are honored to recognize our most generous and loyal donors through our Giving Societies. We hope you will join us in our efforts!

Does $50 really make a difference?

Absolutely! Every gift makes a difference, be it $5 or $5,000,000. Although we are cost-efficient (if not frugal), the funding we receive from contracts and grants doesn’t completely cover the costs of running Lutheran Social Services of the National Capital Area (LSS/NCA) each year. We rely on donations from individuals, congregations, and the community to support our mission and help ensure another 90 years of service.
