GIVE TODAY
Where Impact Begins
RCS is built on the generosity of our community. There are many ways to support our mission—whether through a financial gift, donations of food or clothing, or both.
Your financial contributions directly fund programs and services that provide food, shelter, and pathways to stability for individuals and families.
We also gratefully accept in-kind donations of non-perishable food and gently used clothing, which help us meet immediate needs and keep our shelves stocked for those we serve.
As a donor, you are a vital partner in this work, ensuring essential resources remain available to those who need them most. Every gift—big or small, monetary or material—strengthens our community and transforms lives, one person and one family at a time.
Small Gifts, Big Impact: Give Monthly
When you join our monthly giving community, you aren’t just making a donation—you’re becoming a partner in our mission. Spreading your support throughout the year makes giving easier for you while providing a predictable lifeline for those we serve. Start your monthly gift today and see how small acts, when combined, create a massive impact.
Planned Giving
By investing in legacy programs now, your gift will sustain RCS over the long term. A gift from your estate ensures RCS' future. There are many ways to make a gift from your estate, one as simple as a bequest in a will. They can also be given as large sums of money which RCS can either invest or receive income.
RCS' legacy donors are welcomed into The Samaritan Society and remain connected to RCS throughout their lifetime.
Memorials
A gift made in memory of someone is a way to honor the legacy of a loved one who has passed away. We will send a handwritten card indicating your donation to their loved one. Your gesture serves as a lasting tribute to their memory and can provide comfort during a difficult time. This act of kindness not only keeps their spirit alive but also helps support meaningful causes in their name.
Honor Gifts
Looking for a great way to celebrate a special occasion, like a birthday or wedding anniversary? A gift in honor of that special someone or couple is a wonderful way to show your love while supporting those we serve at RCS. When you make a gift to RCS, let us know whom you would like to honor. You can do so by making a gift online and indicating that you would like to send an Honor Card.
Donations
A one time, monthly or quarterly recurring gift supports RCS' mission to help clients achieve self-sustainment through:
- Case Management
