Donations & Ways to Give
Through your support of PATSA, you can help make a REAL difference in the lives of those touched by Tourette Syndrome!
Your gift will help us continue our critical programs of information, education and disability advocacy for individuals with Tourette Syndrome in PA. Checks can be mailed directly to PATSA at 18 High St. #68, Hanover, PA 17331 or to our Pittsburgh location at PATSA Western PA at 700 Washington Ave. #456, Bridgeville, PA 15017.

We appreciate donations of goods and services. Many are used for our yearly events or as silent auction items at our yearly TS Family Camp. View our Wish List here.
Donate clothing: We have partnered with CommunityAid to collect gently used clothing and shoes at any of their 6 locations using our partner number 20040 and PATSA will receive 6 cents per pound. This really adds up. See our partnership fundraising page for printable slips and more info.
Donate a vehicle: We have partnered with Vehicle Donation to Any Charity for your vehicle donation. Just go to our webpage on the V-DAC site and they will process your donation, sell your unwanted vehicle–you get a receipt for tax-purposes and PATSA gets a check for the donation less any processing fees. Go to https://careasy.org/pa-tourette-syndrome-alliance–inc- or click here to go to our page on their site.
You may be able to give to PATSA through automatic payroll deduction. PATSA is a member of many United Way Agencies and many donors will allow you to give to any 501 (c)(3) charity. Just designate PA Tourette Syndrome Alliance #9692 If you need other information, our EIN# is 23-2367689 and our current address is 18 High St. #68, Hanover, PA 17331. Some United Ways still have us listed as McSherrystown, PA–so either info may work.

A longlasting way to support the PA Tourette Syndrome Alliance is by making a planned gift. You can include a provision in your will or trust and direct your bequest to a particular program or leave it for the general support of the organization. Please discuss this option with your attorney and kindly notify us should you choose to make a bequest.
Major Donors are also needed to invest in our services and ensure all families receive the support they need. Please refer to our Teal Inner Circle information and let us know if you are ready to invest!
