The money raised at this event funds the various services offered at Contact Ministries. We want to thank the golf committee for all their time, resources and energy put into making this year a huge success!!
Thank you to all of our sponsors for their continuous support!!
A special thank you to all who joined us for our 40th Anniversary Open House! During our celebration, we honored our incredible volunteers who have truly impacted lives for Christ!!

Volunteer of the Month:
Keller Williams Real Estate Group
As part of their RED DAY (Renew, Energize, and Donate), Keller Williams branch sends all of their employees to serve locally. Since 2009, on the second Thursday of May, associates celebrate their Vice Chairman Mo Anderson's birthday by spending the day serving organizations in their communities.
RED DAY is just another example of their commitment to each other and the communities where they live and work.
Keller Williams Real Estate Group replaced our Transitional Shelter's kitchen tables, added decor to our playroom, organized our food pantry, put together Mother's Day gifts for our Transitional and Emergency Shelter residents and stained the fence they gifted us with last year. It was a day full of blessings! Thank you so very much Keller Williams!!
Every semester students are asked to donate their new or gently used dorm belongings. This spring they blessed us with many household items and clothing!! We are overwhelmed with gratitude!!
Illinois League & Trust chooses a Charity of the Month for their employees to donate to. Contact Ministries was chosen for the month of May! Thank you so very much for your contribution! Your generous support helps impact lives for Christ!
We received a very generous donation of Pediasure, Ensure, Similac, Nutren, and other nutritional drinks! We were able to supply both the Emergency and Transitional Shelters AND donate to The Parent Place (pictured above), Kumler Outreach Ministries, Mini O'Beirne, and the Senior Services Center!!! We truly work better together!!!
We also want to thank our honorable sponsors who make it possible for Contact Ministries to continue meeting our mission and vision in providing daily and emergency assistance
