Montrose Lighthouse, Inc. is committed to being a responsible steward of every dollar entrusted to us. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, we rely on the generosity of individuals, churches, businesses, foundations, grants, and community partners to provide emergency winter shelter and support for individuals experiencing homelessness.
Each year, funding is used to provide safe overnight shelter, nutritious meals, utilities, facility maintenance, insurance, staffing, transportation, and other essential services that allow our guests to stay safe during the winter months.
Because emergency shelter operates seasonally, funding needs can vary from year to year. Grants provide important support but are often temporary and restricted to specific purposes. For that reason, ongoing community support is essential to sustaining our mission.
Our Commitment
The Board of Directors is dedicated to sound financial management, careful budgeting, and responsible oversight. We actively pursue grants, community partnerships, and private donations while seeking opportunities to operate as efficiently as possible.
Every contribution—whether large or small—helps provide warmth, safety, hope, and dignity to individuals experiencing homelessness in our community.
Financial Transparency
Montrose Lighthouse, Inc. believes transparency builds trust. Financial statements and IRS Form 990 filings are available upon request and will be posted as they become available.
Thank you for partnering with us to ensure that no one in our community has to face the winter without shelter.
