Support Our Programs
Your gifts, both large and small, allow us to provide programs at no cost that make a major difference in the lives of thousands of people and their families each year.
Sponsor a Family for the Holidays!
Each year, a handful of our generous donors sponsor a student and their family for the holidays. We supply the donors with a wishlist the family has submitted containing essential items needed, small items or toys that make them happy, a gift card to a preferred store, their coat sizes, and some helpful information about the individuals. The Center then distributes all gifts to each family before our holiday break to make their holidays a little brighter! Want to sponsor an SFNC family? Contact SFNC at info@stfranciscenter.org to get involved!
Can We Count on You?
Thank you to everyone who donated to the Count On Me capital campaign to support the renovation and expansion of St. Francis Neighborhood Center and its programs to serve more people in need in Reservoir Hill and address a long wait list for our youth development programs! The final phase of renovation and expansion is now underway with an expected completion date of early 2025.
Campaign to Sustain
Guarantee the future of St. Francis Neighborhood Center! By committing to a monthly contribution, you ensure that we will keep showing up for our youth, keep believing in their dreams, and keep fighting for their futures, month after month. You can customize the amount and frequency of your donation, as well as cancel at any time!
Amanda Taylor Emergency Fund
With this fund, St. Francis Neighborhood Center assists our families who find themselves in dire situations. We have assisted with medical emergencies, untimely deaths in the family, tragedies (such as a house fire or death due to gun violence), youth in need of food/clothing, illness, displaced youth, and more. We know our families, and when a true emergency arises, this fund gives us the flexibility to offer support and care as needed.
If you're interested in donating to this fund, please reach out to us at info@stfranciscenter.org.
Corporate Event Sponsorships
Events are SO important for fundraising, but without sponsors, we're stuck risking funds that are important for our mission. When we have official corporate sponsors, our efforts go even further! Contact the SFNC team at info@stfranciscenter.org to get involved

Composto-Ross Scholarship
This scholarship is awarded to students who have participated in the St. Francis Neighborhood Center internship program, completed 12th grade, and have been accepted to a higher education program. Its purpose is to encourage and provide some financial relief to students who want to further their education.
Please contact us at info@stfranciscenter.org if you'd like to support this initiative.
