Many Ways to Give

However you give, your gift has a profound impact on the lives of students, guests, and residents at Our Saviour’s Community Services.

Become A ChangeMaker

The Changemaker’s Club is made up of a cherished group of supporters who give affordable, automated donations each month.

As a Changemaker, you can spread your giving out over the year, which allows you to make a tremendous impact without breaking your budget. Each gift will also go even further by saving on administrative costs like postage, check processing, and printing costs – bringing us that much closer to ending homelessness and eliminating language barriers.
