We also have an Amazon Wishlist, so if you are someone who prefers purchasing an item for a nonprofit instead of giving a monetary donation, please visit our Wishlist. We are currently planning a big community event where we will have many educational and fun activities for children, teens, and adults. Our Wishlist will feature items that will help us with this event.

• Medical related supplies (such as isolation gowns, latex free gloves, masks, and other protective gear so children can learn about different health related careers. We would like the children to be able to dress up and do mock medical procedures)
• Event Supplies- Our Wishlist may include basic supplies needed for large scale community events such as communication devices, tables, equipment, decor, signage, paper products, cleaning supplies, any many other things needed for a successful event.

Important Note- Square does charge our non-profit a fee on each transaction for using their platform. The fees are the following as of March 2026.

• Tap, dip, or swipe: 2.6% + 15¢
• Online or invoices: 3.3% + 30¢
• Online API: 2.9% + 30¢

Example: If you donate $100 through our online portal, Square will charge The BEACON Institute $2.90 + 30¢ for a total of $3.20. Meaning our nonprofit will receive $96.80 of your donation.
