Tax-Deductible Donations
Donating to Christian Shelter comes with tax benefits. As a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, all contributions are tax-deductible. At the end of each year, we provide donors with a tax letter detailing their contributions for easy record-keeping.
Efficient Use of Funds
An impressive 81% of financial donations go directly toward supporting our programs and services. This high percentage reflects our commitment to transparency and effective resource management, ensuring that your contributions have a meaningful impact on the lives of our residents.
Your financial support has enabled us to achieve significant milestones. Recently, we were able to reroof the entire shelter and replace outdated walk-in freezers and coolers.
