Impact Partner

There are certain people for whom homelessness is not just an issue -It’s the issue. For them, being a part of the solution is not just about helping, but also about restoring. To become an impact partner contact us.

There are certain people; it’s about creating pathways for change and being part of something bigger than themselves. Those are Impact Partners. They give their time, their talents, and their treasure.

Collectively, this group has dedicated significant resources to help our guests survive the day and help create connections that will transform lives for a better tomorrow.

Our Impact Partners have access to networking opportunities with like-minded philanthropists and other activities and special content to keep them informed, empowered, and engaged with our team and vision.

Because of their faithfulness and generosity, City Relief serves over 50,000 individuals yearly with plans to expand our services in the New York City Metro area. Impact Partners help us make a tangible and life-changing impact on our guests and strengthen our organization to help us to fulfill God’s desire to care for those in need.

Impact Partners have provided over $5 million in financial support since City Relief was founded in 1989 and has given or pledged over $300,000 this fiscal year.
