Matching Funds contribution
With YOUR help, we raised the necessary $25,000 matching funds before our December 31, 2025, deadline. We worked hard to raise as much as we could on our own, but we could not have been successful without the support of individual and business donors.
Your contributions will boost our Perpetual Fund, help us pay some bills in 2026, and expand our offerings. We prioritize every dollar put toward operating costs, programs, and future initiatives to serve our community better.
For more information or to donate to a specific need, contact pchgaoldjail.gmail.com, or visit us Tuesdays–Thursdays,
10 a.m.–3 p.m.
