Widespread community support keeps the doors open at St. Benedict’s. Without its community partners, the shelter would not exist.
Private donations pay for up to 90% of St. Benedict’s operating expenses. Grants provide the other 10%. The shelter receives no state or federal funding.
As with all nonprofits, money to fund day-to-day operations is most desirable. Gifts that are earmarked may only be spent on what the donor designates, whether it is a particular program or a capital project.
St. Benedict’s always needs funding for day-to-day operations, which includes salaries, utilities, insurance on buildings, and other ongoing expenses. The easiest way to donate is online.
Your financial gifts to St. Benedict’s provide a wide range of support for our guests — everything from the physical to the practical, from the emotional to the spiritual. Your support provides meals, shelter, clothing, job training, recovery programs, transitional housing, spiritual training, and more.
The nonprofit provides just about everything a man needs to get back on his feet, find a fresh start, and have hope for the future.
