EVERY GIFT LOOKS DIFFERENT

Choose the path that fits your heart and your capacity.

Whether you’re giving once or building a lasting legacy, there are plenty of ways to join the mission of Narrow Gate: monthly giving, matched campaigns, stock gifts, business partnerships and in-kind gifts. Every gift helps disciple young men, fund transformation and build a life that truly matters.

CASH GIFTS

Your generosity makes discipleship possible every day.

  • One-time gifts. A single gift helps cover immediate needs and keeps Narrow Gate tuition-free for every young man who steps through our doors.
  • Monthly giving. Joining as a monthly partner sustains long-term transformation, with steady discipleship year-round.
MAXIMIZE YOUR IMPACT

Become a monthly donor.

Monthly partners give our team the stability to plan ahead, so every young man who comes through our doors can be discipled well, start to finish.

GIVING BEYOND CASH

Gifts that keep giving.

Stock, real estate and retirement gifts create lasting impact, often with added tax benefits.

STOCK

Stocks & securities

Turn appreciated assets into lasting impact by gifting stock directly. It’s often more tax-efficient than selling first.

IRA

Retirement accounts

A simple designation from your IRA can become an eternal investment in discipleship and transformation.

PROPERTY

Real estate

Property can be more than land. It can pave the way for young men to discover a life that matters.

LEGACY

Legacy gifts

Including Narrow Gate in your will or trust plants seeds of purpose that will grow long after you’re gone.

WHAT YOUR GIFT MAKES POSSIBLE

Lives changed, in their words.

Before my husband and I dropped our son off at Narrow Gate, we were scared, exhausted, and hopeless… He went from a lost 23-year-old with no purpose to a mature man with identity in Christ, purpose, responsibility, and joy.
PROUD MOM
Coming to Narrow Gate is the best decision I have ever made. Unplugging, slowing down, and digging into God's Word these last 8 months has been pivotal in changing my entire outlook on my purpose in life.

GIVING QUESTIONS

Questions donors ask us.

What is Narrow Gate Foundation?

Narrow Gate Foundation is a Christian discipleship nonprofit in Middle Tennessee, founded in 2004. Through the Narrow Gate Lodge, a tuition-free, eight-month residential program for young men ages 18–25, and through our artisan businesses (Narrow Gate Leather, Narrow Gate Coffee and Narrow Gate Woodworks), we help young men discover who they are in Christ and why they’re here.

Is my gift to Narrow Gate tax-deductible?

Yes. Narrow Gate Foundation is a tax-exempt nonprofit, and gifts are tax-deductible as allowed by law. Our Federal Tax ID (EIN) is 20-1748295.

What does my gift support?

Your gift keeps the Narrow Gate Lodge tuition-free for every young man who comes through our doors. It covers housing, meals, Bible teaching, hands-on work in our craft shops and outdoor challenges during the eight-month program.

How can I give?

You can give online at give.narrowgate.org, become a monthly donor, give stock or securities, make a qualified charitable distribution from an IRA, give real estate, include Narrow Gate in your will or trust, or give through a donor-advised fund.
