Becoming a Partner

Harvest Child Care Ministries cannot operate without the generous support of donors like you. Each year, we must raise approximately $1.6 million to continue providing a safe, loving home for the children in our care. Every dollar truly makes a difference.

In addition to financial contributions, we depend on essential physical donations—such as non-perishable food items, hygiene products, new clothing, and cleaning supplies—to meet our daily needs. Most importantly, we covet your prayers as we care for children who have experienced deep hurt and hardship.

We have the capacity to house up to 51 children at a time, and the cost of care is substantial. On average, it takes $36.05 per child per day to provide food, clothing, transportation, shelter, and meaningful experiences. We cannot do this alone. Your gift directly impacts the lives of our kids.

Whether you choose to make a one-time donation or become a monthly partner, your generosity helps us fulfill our mission. When you give, you help us serve Christ by serving His children.

Join us in serving Christ through kids. Thank you for loving our kids.

Annual Christmas Party

Christmas is a magical time for children—but for those separated from their families, it can also be difficult. At Harvest, we believe every child deserves to feel loved, celebrated, and cherished during the holiday season.

Providing a joyful Christmas for each of our children would be financially overwhelming without the support of our generous donors. That’s why each year, we host our Annual Christmas Party, a special event made possible by individuals, churches, and organizations who sponsor a child for Christmas.

Each sponsor decorates a Christmas tree for their child and fills it with carefully chosen gifts—creating a personalized and heartwarming experience that our kids look forward to all year long.

If you, your church, or your organization would like to sponsor a child and help make this Christmas unforgettable, please contact Martha Stone at (276) 546-4400 ext. 104 or Martha@harvestccm.org.

Thank you for helping us bring joy, warmth, and love to our children this Christmas.

Planned Giving

Corinthians 4:2 tells us, “Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.” Our faithfulness in stewardship to the Lord should extend not only throughout our lives but also beyond our earthly journey. Wouldn’t it bring peace to know that the ministries you’ve passionately supported during your life will continue to benefit from your generosity even after your passing?

Below are several options to ensure lasting support for the ministries close to your heart.

  • Include Harvest Child Care Ministries in Your Will:** You can designate a percentage of your estate, a specific asset or item, or the remainder of your estate to support this ministry.
  • Designate Harvest as a Savings Account Beneficiary:** Bank personnel can assist you with a Pay-On-Death (P.O.D.) designation, ensuring that you retain exclusive access during your lifetime, with the account transferring directly to Harvest upon your death.
  • Name Harvest as Beneficiary for Assets:** Savings Bonds, IRAs, or tax-sheltered annuities can provide significant tax advantages when designated to Harvest instead of individual beneficiaries.

In each method mentioned above, you maintain complete control over your assets until your passing, though these options do not offer immediate tax benefits. However, there are other giving methods available that provide immediate income tax charitable deductions and can offer a steady income for life. Such methods include charitable remainder gift annuities and various types of trusts. These can be funded through cash, stocks, bonds, mutual funds, real estate, and other assets, potentially avoiding capital gains taxes and providing ongoing financial management benefits.
