Join CHiPS in the fight to end hunger and homelessness
For over fifty years, you have helped us give people a hot breakfast, lunch, pantry bags and shelter services. Through your contributions, we now serve 170,000 meals every year—and a little goes a long way.
CHiPS is a nonprofit, tax-exempt 501(c)(3) organization. Contributions are tax deductible and directly support the soup kitchen and women’s shelter.
How your gift helps:
-
Our meals cost $4.50
-
$27 = Six hot meals in our soup kitchen
-
$162 = Thirty-six hot meals
-
$215 = One month of shelter for an expecting mother
-
$283 = One month of shelter for mother and child
While one-time donations are welcomed, ongoing monthly contributions create a powerful impact.
- $50.00 a month provides 133 hot meals annually.
When you give a little more, we can get— and do— a lot more.
