Gracious supporters of this living ministry offer new and used clothing to the residents, gifts of fresh, frozen or canned food items to our kitchen, and monetary offerings that enable the Friars of The Atonement to continue operating this haven of hope. All donations directly offset the costs of operating the Inn. The Inn is a registered charity for corporate matching gift programs under the ID number of 13-3668321. Additionally, all gifts are tax-deductible and are acknowledged individually in writing. Clothing and food donations are received 9:00 to 4:30 at the Main Office. Monetary donations can be mailed to St. Christopher's Inn, Box 150, Route 9, Garrison, New York 10524.
Your support truly helps us to keep hope alive for all those who come to St. Christopher’s Inn looking for a better tomorrow.  We are proud of the fact that, as stewards of your generosity and sacrifice, our commitment is to ensure that each contribution makes the greatest difference in every life we touch.

Some of ways in which you can help our mission are listed below.  Please feel free to contact our Development Office at (845) 335-1005 for more details. 

• Annual Fund Program/Donation: No matter what the amount, every cent raised enables us to continue and enhance the great services St. Christopher’s Inn provides.

• Centennial Brick Walk: Give a gift that will last forever, celebrate a momentous occasion or remember a loved one.  Purchase a brick to be engraved and be a part of our Centennial Walk made up of 5,000 bricks in a “park like” setting.  Bricks cost $250 for standard size and $500 for a larger version.

• Contribute to the Scholarship Fund: St. Christopher’s Inn gives away well over $700,000 a year for medical and counseling services (In 2005, that number nearly reached $1,000,000).  Scholarships are reserved for exemplary candidates committed to recovery who do not have the means to pay. 

• Corporate Campaign: Each year our friends in the business world make a monetary commitment and/or provide contacts to support our facility and programs.  Matching Gift opportunities are always welcomed.

• “Friend of St. Christopher’s Inn” Member:  This annual membership opportunity is a great way to keep in touch with what’s going on at the Inn, including special events and discounts at our thrift store/antique shop.  Memberships start at $25 - $100 annually to $500 for a lifetime membership.

• Gifts in Kind:  If you own a business or know of someone who does, we welcome donations of all kinds, including, but not limited to, bed and hygiene products, food, office supplies, under garments and medical supplies (including medications).

• Planned Giving: For making an investment and a difference, taking advantage of our planned giving opportunities can really impact our future as well as your own.  We would be honored to assist you with a gift annuity, charitable trust, bequestor any assets you wish to donate, such as stocks & bonds or real estate.

• Support our Thrift Store/Antique Shop:  The easiest way is to simply shop at our store; however, we depend on your great donations to keep us going.  All proceeds from the store go directly to assist those we serve.

• Sponsor/Support an Event: From golf-outings to dinners we are always looking for friends and guests to join us.  If you are interested in becoming a sponsor, purchasing a journal ad or  attending one of our events, please contact the Development Office for a list of opportunities.

• Volunteer: Time is one of the greatest gifts one can give.  From drivers to artists and everything in between, if you have a skill you would like to share, we can use your help!  Those with counseling, social work, clerical and/or healthcare backgrounds are always in great need.

We greatly appreciate your support, friendship and trust.  On behalf of St. Christopher’s Inn and all those we serve, THANK YOU!
