Ways You Can Get Involved

• Pray – Pray for our ministry, our Board, our volunteers, and for those we serve.
• Volunteer – Primary roles include serving as Field Volunteer, a street outreach ministry and/or as Drop-In Center Volunteer engaging with guests who come in for fellowship or services. From time-to-time, there can be other needs which can vary. Schedules are flexible. Click here for details about the roles and needs, then contact us with questions and to apply.
• Donate Financially – We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization and a qualifying organization for the AZ Tax Credit, making all donations eligible for a tax deduction and/or AZ State tax credit. All donations are placed into a general fund and allocated as needed at the direction of the Board.
  • Recurring donations help to ensure a steady cashflow to cover our ongoing costs and to support the expansion of services. We operate 5 days a week and serve a growing need.
  • Single donations are important and always welcome.
  • Donations can be made by credit card securely through our website, or by check mailed to our PO Box listed on this website.
  • Arizona Charitable Tax Credit Program – We are a qualified organization (QCO# 22459). Your contributions may be eligible for a dollar-for-dollar tax credit on your personal AZ income tax return. Refer to www.azdor.gov/tax-credits or consult with a tax advisor for further information.
• Donate Goods – When we receive in-kind donations of the items we use most often, it reduces the burden on expenses helping ensure sufficient cashflow for rent, utilities, van maintenance and fuel, laundry vouchers, and the various routine expenses involved in operating the Drop-In Center. Click here or on “Wish List” at the top of the page for about the types of in-kind donations that are needed. Your in-kind donations are tax deductible to the extent permitted by law.

How Your Donations Help

• Serve the immediate and urgent needs of those experiencing homelessness.  We maintain a standard inventory of items to provide as needed on a limited basis.  Items include sleeping bags, blankets, tents, backpacks, hygiene items for both men and women, non-perishable food and snack items, paper goods, bottled water and hydration drinks, new socks and underwear, jackets, study materials and Bibles.
• Fund the cost of vouchers used to obtain laundry, gas, and clothing (especially important for those seeking jobs or actively employed).
• Fill Blessing Bags with toiletries and hygiene items, non-perishable food, snacks, water, bibles and related material. Blessing bags are given out to people in need.  .
• Operate and maintain our van that allows us to go out and meet those living homeless where they are – parks, parking lots, open lands in Prescott Valley and vicinity.  Our street outreach operates from a 2012 van that was generously donated to A Safe Place in 2020.
• Operate the Drop-In Center and provide hot meals, showers, a comfortable environment, and adequate food and supplies.
• Meet other operating needs and expenses such as storage space, office supplies, printing, insurance, web and computer support. Currently, A Safe Place is staffed 100% by volunteers; no one receives any compensation from A Safe Place.
• Increase our capacity to serve more people in greater ways as we strive to fulfill our mission and vision.
