Your support impacts countless lives

When it comes to serving those in need, YOU make help, hope, and healing possible in more lives across Central and South Central Indiana. Each time you share with others in need, you are making a difference for one more man, woman, or child.
That’s why we invite you to support our ministry—and together, we’ll help even more of our neighbors struggling with homelessness.

Circle of Hope really helps neighbors in need!

Each person in our Circle of Hope gives monthly gifts. Their consistent support makes our ministry to people struggling with homelessness possible.

You can become part of our Circle of Hope today!

By committing to a monthly gift of any amount, you’ll begin helping feed, shelter, and care for even more people right away. In one year, a monthly gift of just $35 will provide 167 meals and care.

That’s 167 more people who will:
• Eat a hot, nourishing meal
• Sleep in a clean bed with warm blankets
• Hear the hope of the Gospel message

That’s more people rescued… restored… and renewed through God’s love. Join Circle of Hope and become a partner in reaching more of our neighbors experiencing homelessness now.
