Donate to the Crisis Ministry
Give a Gift of Warmth and Light or a gift to honor or remember someone special. Send us a donation (enclose a note with the honoree's name), and we will be pleased to send a "Gift of Hope" card to let the designated person or family know a gift was given in their honor and how the gift was used, from heat or light for a home, to feed families, to keep a roof over a family's head, or to pay for a needed prescription. The list below not only gives examples of how your donation will help but also provides a quick and convenient way to donate online. Thank you for helping people in need to find a way to a brighter future! Please consider giving in any combination of these levels:
- $50 will feed 7 families for a 3-day period
- $100 will purchase prescription medication for an uninsured person
- $250 will provide heat or electricity for a low-income family
- $500 will help a family avoid the agony of homelessness by paying rent
- $750 will give a homeless family a home by providing a security deposit
- $1000 will feed 50 families for a 3-day period
Do you prefer to send a check rather than donate online? If so, please send your donation, check made out to the Crisis Ministry, to: The Crisis Ministry, 123 E. Hanover St., Trenton, NJ 08608. Remember to indicate in the memo line how your donation should be directed.
