Grace Bible Church did a really amazing thing for the homeless. They built a picnic shelter behind the Church where we serve on Sunday. This is an amazing thing because it keeps the homeless out of the rain when we are serving them and they are waiting outside before we open. There is still one thing we can do to make the shelter amazing. Put clear outdoor curtains around the shelter. These curtains are like tarps and would further shelter the homeless from the wind and make it even better during the harshest of weather. Here is what they look like Click here to see It would cost about $2,000 for all the materials to enclose the shelter and we wouldn't have to pay to have them installed. If you would like to pledge the whole amount or a portion of the $2,000. please feel free to contact Dallas Stamper at (757) 813-4777 or by email at dallas.stamper@pinministry.org

This would be a great use of money from your tax return.

PIN has big news to announce our 7th Annual Golf Tournament is going to be Thursday June 7th at The Signature at West Neck 1PM shotgun start. The Signature is an Arnold Palmer designed golf course that is rated at the 15th best golf course in Virginia. We will have a great buffet dinner for the golfers in their dining facility at 6PM after golf. Last year we raised $18,000, which was used to provide food, clothing, and medical care for the homeless. One of the new things we were able to do is providing dental care for the homeless with money generated from PIN’s golf tournament.

 

PIN will also be offering any company that sponsors at (Eagle Sponsor $2,500) or more a Virginia State Tax Credit (NAP) worth 40 cents on the dollar donated. The Tax Credit is in addition to the deduction that results from your donation. So if you were able to do the $2,500 sponsorship PIN will give you an additional $1,000 worth of state tax credits off of your companies State tax liability and a $4,000 donation to PIN could give you $1,600, and finally a $10,000 you would get $4,000 …Thanks for even considering this.

 

If you have any questions or want more information about the Tax Credits or about the Tournament please feel free to contact Dallas Stamper at (757) 813-4777 or by email at dallas.stamper@pinministry.org

PIN will be serving a meal to the homeless on Christmas Day. We also want to give every homeless person a present that would be useful for them over the winter. So we have several Churches and a Middle School putting together backpacks with goodies in them to give to the homeless on Christmas Day. We will probable see about 200 homeless people on Christmas Day so we want to have enough backpacks for everyone. 

So how can you help. If you want to put together a back pack we are asking that every backpack contain a pair of gloves, beanie cap, scarf. You are then welcome to add any other items that you feel led to give.
