Grace Place exists for moments when strength, stability, and leadership are needed most. Through practical support, accountability, and community, Grace Place families are given a real opportunity to rebuild their lives.
More than 150 women from our community have stood in the gap through the Grace Place Women’s Alliance. Their collective investment has helped restore hope to families who have experienced isolation, broken support systems, and a lack of resources. Their success raised an important question: Where are the men?
The Grace Place Men’s Alliance is our answer.
The Grace Place Men’s Alliance is made up of men from Sumner County who believe deeply in the mission of Grace Place and understand the lasting impact that steady leadership and generosity can have on future generations. These men have committed to investing $1,000 or more annually to advance the work of this exceptional ministry.
Members of the Men’s Alliance are united by a shared belief: when families are strengthened, communities are changed. They trust the Grace Place staff and Board of Directors to steward every dollar with integrity and excellence, allowing the ministry to remain focused on its mission while the Alliance fuels its growth.
This is not about managing programs or making operational decisions. It is about standing behind a proven mission and helping make transformation possible.
By joining the Grace Place Men’s Alliance, you have the opportunity to make a lasting difference in the lives of single mothers and children experiencing homelessness—helping them move from survival to stability, from uncertainty to independence.
When you join the Grace Place Men’s Alliance, you are doing more than giving—you are helping build futures, restore dignity, and change the trajectory of families for generations to come.
Members are asked to contribute a minimum annual gift of $1,000. These funds are pooled with other designated Alliance donations to directly support the mission and programs of Grace Place.
Your annual commitment may be fulfilled in the way that best fits your giving goals, whether through a one-time contribution, quarterly gifts of $250, or monthly gifts of $83.33. Automatic withdrawal from a checking account is available.
