12/1/25 Update: Thanks to your support, six households who will be the first residents of our tiny home community were able to move out of the cold and into temporary housing until their homes finished!
YOU ARE BRINGING PEOPLE HOME
Your financial support builds villages of hope throughout our city, founded on love and connection.
These transformative communities are much more than a roof, a warm bed, and a locked door.
They’re also places of healing.
With mentors and peers living together with purpose, self-reliance, self-esteem, and dignity are built each day.
Together, we can offer true Sanctuary.
Want to donate from a stock or DAF account, put Sanctuary Indy in your will, or give another way?
Email eschneider@sanctuaryindy.org to reach Erica Schneider, Advancement Director.
Checks can be made out to Sanctuary Indy and mailed to PO Box 30382, Indianapolis, IN 46230.
All gifts to Sanctuary Indy, a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization, are tax-deductible to the full extent of the law.
Through our planning, we have determined that $4 million* is needed to develop our first Sanctuary Indy community.
This budget includes $1 million to construct all of the supporting infrastructure and $3 million to build approximately 27 homes and necessary service buildings.
Join this important movement to provide permanent housing in a supportive and empowering community for those who are chronically homeless. With your help, we will build 27 homes along with a few community amenities. Phase 1 of our campaign will offer a variety of giving opportunities to serve as a lasting legacy. Donors to our Capital Campaign will be honored in the community.
