Donate to Cornerstone
Established in 1995, Cornerstone Counseling Center began as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, guided by a vision to foster a lasting positive impact in our community. “Cornerstone Cares”—and one of our fundamental beliefs is that offering effective support and services, grounded in our Christian counseling and educational paradigm, has the potential to bring about transformative change in the lives of students, individuals, families, and marriages. Today, with thirty+ years of steadfast commitment, we continue to “CARE” as the need for services continues to grow.
Donating to Cornerstone is an opportunity to make a lasting impact in the lives of those who rely on our counseling, education, and training programs. As a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, we depend on the generosity of donors to provide financial assistance for counseling services, scholarships for students at Cornerstone Christian Academy, and resources for program development. Your gift, whether one-time or ongoing, ensures that everyone who qualifies receives the support they need. Every donation plays a vital role in bringing hope, healing, and transformation to those we serve. Join with us today and be part of changing lives.
