Donors
Hardship Hurts. Caring Counts. That's been the formula for LEAVEN's success since 1987. Helping people through an emergency financial crisis means that a:
- single parent doesn't have to choose between food and medicine for her infant.
- laid-off worker can avoid eviction before a new job begins.
- family can continue to heat their apartment.
- car can be fixed or fueled to reach a job interview.
- security deposit can be paid to help someone out of transitional housing.
LEAVEN helps others through the generous financial support of individuals, churches, businesses and foundations in our community. We need your help because the needs are ongoing, requiring a constant demonstration of our caring and commitment to the people in our community who need a temporary helping hand.
LEAVEN is a not-for-profit organization that leverages the talents of hundreds of volunteers with the generosity of thousands of donors to efficiently and effectively support those who look to us for help. Often, just a little financial help can make a huge difference. LEAVEN operates with just a handful of staff, which means that expenses as a percentage of donations is extremely small, and every dollar contributed is spent to help local residents through temporary hardships.
