Give
Sponsor a Seat at the Table.
Every resident will have a place at the table. Your gift, in any amount, once or every month, goes into one shared fund that helps make room for them.
Giving is not open yet. The Gathering Table isn't yet incorporated, hasn't received IRS recognition as a 501(c)(3), and is finishing the registrations Tennessee requires before soliciting donations. We won't take your money, or say it's tax-deductible, until that is true. Tell us you want to give and we'll reach out personally the day it opens.
One way to picture the cost of a seat
$21
a day
Roughly what it takes to keep one seat filled for a day.
$150
a week
About one resident's weekly program fee.
$650
a month
Close to the monthly cost of one bed at our planned scale.
These figures are planning estimates, not quotes. Any amount helps.
How the fund works
- One shared pool, never tied to a specific resident.
- Used to help cover the gap between what residents' fees and our businesses bring in and what a house costs to run.
- We plan to report on how it's used, without sharing any resident's story.
Other ways to give
- Churches and groups: take on a monthly seat together.
- In-kind: equipment, supplies, food, tools, vehicles, or professional services.
- Planned giving and donor-advised funds: tell us and we'll work out the details.
