Christ’s Haven was recently selected by TCU’s Honors College “Philanthropy & Giving” class to receive a generous $20,000 gift.

This wasn’t just a simple selection process. Students spent an entire semester vetting 85 different nonprofits, narrowing the field down to just 10. The decision-making process involved:

Deep Research: An extensive site visit and a rigorous Q&A session as well as multiple reports throughout the semester.

The Big Debate: A dedicated team of five students advocated for on behalf of Christ’s Haven during a grueling 10-hour class debate.

The Final Vote: A full-class consensus to award Christ’s Haven and nine other organizations these impactful funds.

It was an extensive and impressive process seeing the hard work and research the students contributed. They asked the questions and did the work to understand Christ’s Haven’s mission and unique programs.

Thank you to the students and donors for this generous gift that will provide normalcy, dignity, and hope in the lives of displaced youth.
