Gifts to Charity
Beginning in 2004, Lottsa Tax & Accounting Services, Inc. began making a donation to a selected charity for each individual tax return we complete. This is an opportunity to express our support for these organizations and their activities. It’s also a way to make their existence known to you, in hopes that you too will support them.
If you have suggestions for a future beneficiary of our donations, please let a Lottsa staff member know.
In 2026, Lottsa will donate $2 per completed individual tax return to Bridge for Youth.
The Bridge for Youth empowers youth experiencing homelessness through safe shelter, basic needs and healthy relationships. There are more than 6,000 youth experiencing homelessness on any given night in Minnesota; with youth disproportionately affected relative to their population, making up nearly half (46%) of the homeless. The Bridge for Youth provides support for young people aged 10 – 17, experiencing unaccompanied housing insecurity. This includes emergency shelter housing, a variety of outreach and support services, and supportive housing options for homeless pregnant and parenting youth and their children.
