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.

Bulk buying is key to our ability to serve our people at scale. When you raise your donation by just a few dollars—say, from $10 to $20—we’re able to double the amount of items we can buy from our wholesalers. If you have any questions about making a donation or to request information for a stock or EFT gift, please contact shanice@chipsonline.org. You can also mail a gift to CHiPS at Community in Park Slope (CHiPS), 200 4th Ave Brooklyn NY 11217.
