Give

DONATE ONLINE

You can change the lives of neighbors experiencing homelessness, hunger, poverty, or substance addiction right now with a one-time or a recurring gift.

DONOR-ADVISED FUNDS

Donor-advised funds (DAFs) are rapidly becoming the most popular charitable giving vehicle in the U.S.—and for good reason! They offer immediate tax advantages, flexibility, and simplicity without the administrative burdens.

LEGACY GIVING

Let your legacy be one that honors God, blesses your family, and continues to support the ministries you care about most (like Frederick Rescue Mission!).

STOCKS & SECURITIES

Do you own stocks, bonds, or mutual funds that have increased in value since you purchased them? Consider donating appreciated securities you’ve held for more than one year.

IRA CHARITABLE ROLLOVERS

You can make a tax-free charitable distribution directly from your IRA to the Frederick Rescue Mission if you are 70½ or older. This type of gift — known as a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) — allows you to give in an amount of your choosing without the distribution being counted as taxable income in the year it’s made.

It’s a simple and impactful way to support our work while potentially reducing your tax burden.

We encourage you to consult your financial advisor or attorney to ensure your giving plans align with your financial goals.

START A FUNDRAISER

Celebrate a special occasion by making a difference. Invite your family and friends to join you in celebrating — while also blessing those in need right here in our community.

BUSINESS PARTNERS

Businesses partner with us by sponsoring events and programs, making a direct and meaningful impact. Your support helps us fulfill our mission and bring hope to those in need throughout our community.

FOUNDATION DONORS

Investments from key foundations are essential to the Mission’s success. Grant funding not only provides vital resources but also enables us to reflect on our impact, assess challenges, and grow stronger. 

MAKING A DIFFERENCE

We believe in being good stewards of financial support.

The Mission has been awarded 4 Stars consecutively by Charity Navigator, which is the highest rating available to nonprofits through America’s premier nonprofit evaluator. Be #blessedtogive!

Brenda Bell
Rescued Treasures Coordinator

Brenda coordinates the volunteers who sort clothes and assist guests in Rescued Treasures.

She has been working with people in poverty since 1981. She says, “First, I befriend them. Then I find out what they need and refer them to the program that could best help. I only help people who want help, and only in the ways they want help. Some people have addiction problems and don’t want to leave the street. I’m still their friend.”
