***BREAKING NEWS***
Orion has been presented with a $5,000 end of year matching challenge so that every dollar you donate above what you gifted last year will be matched. Thank you for considering our neighbors in need for your year end giving!

What does your donation mean to Orion Communities?

It means we can give a woman and her children a place to stay for the night when they have lost their home and she needs time to develop a plan.
It means we provide a food gift card to a young couple with a baby to bridge the gap until the next paycheck.
It means we can provide bus fare for a man to get to work when his car broke down and he doesn’t have the funds for repair just yet.
It means we can keep the lights on in an office so we can listen to our clients and help develop a plan to move towards increased self-reliance.
We are a 501(c) (3) certified organization – all donations are tax deductible!

No donation is too small. All of our funding comes from non-government sources and donations. Thank you for helping us help those facing poverty, mental illness, unemployment and unexpected life challenges.
