DONATE
By donating to Pathways Community Center, you support these critical programs that provide stability, safety, security, and support to individuals and families in poverty, as well as the on-site agencies. Where does your giving go?
Stability through Service Coordination
Our Intake and Referral Program is a vital service that seamlessly assesses and refers over 500 new individuals to essential services each year, playing a crucial role in supporting their path to self-sufficiency.
Safety, Security, and Dignity
We ensure a safe and dignified environment by maintaining and repairing facilities for the 14+ on-site agencies, including three shelters. Your donations support necessary renovations tailored to agency and client needs, and fund continuous security services to safeguard the property, clients, staff and volunteers.
Enhanced Support Network
As a Collaborative Network Hub, we boost inter-agency collaboration and streamline service coordination, reducing redundant efforts and making resource use more efficient. This results in substantial cost savings for on-site agencies, ranging between $15,000 and $50,000 annually in overhead costs per agency. Collectively, we save our partners $452,000/year. Moreover, it fosters volunteer and funding opportunities, magnifying the impact of your contributions and making your involvement even more beneficial and impactful.
Financial Stewardship
At Pathways Community Center, we are committed to transparency and accountability. We ensure your donations are used responsibly by providing:
- Annual Reports
- Third-Party Audited Financial Statements and 990s
