Mission and programs · 2025

Mission

TO CREATE HOUSING SOLUTIONS, PROVIDE COMPASSIONATE HOMELESS DAY SERVICES, AND WORK ALONGSIDE PARTNERS TO INSPIRE COMMUNITY ACTION.

  • THE CHRISTIAN SERVICE CENTER (CSC) EXISTS TO PREVENT AND END HOMELESSNESS THROUGH A COMPREHENSIVE, DIGNITY-FIRST APPROACH. CSC'S HOUSING PROGRAM SEEKS TO CONNECT INDIVIDUALS EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS WITH SECURE, SAFE, STABLE, AND PERMANENT HOUSING. THROUGH THE DEDICATED SUPPORT OF OUR TEAM, 791 INDIVIDUALS AND CHILDREN WERE ASSISTED INTO PERMANENT HOUSING IN 2025. THANKS TO OUR SUPPORTIVE SERVICES FOR VETERANS AND FAMILIES (SSVF) INITIATIVES, 144 VETERANS WERE RAPIDLY REHOUSED AND PROVIDED WITH CASE MANAGEMENT AND WRAPAROUND SUPPORT SERVICES. ADDITIONALLY, 329 CHRONICALLY HOMELESS INDIVIDUALS WERE EXTENDED MOVE-IN ASSISTANCE, WHILE 137 PEOPLE WERE REUNIFIED WITH FAMILY VIA BUS OR AIRFARE. OUR HOMELESS PREVENTION PROGRAM SUPPORTS INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES FACING UNFORESEEN CRISES. IN 2025, OUR TEAM PROVIDED CRITICAL RENT AND UTILITY ASSISTANCE FOR 747 HOUSEHOLDS, PREVENTING EVICTION AND SERVICE DISCONNECTION. THE DAY SERVICES PROGRAM PROVIDES RELIABLE DAILY SUPPORT FOR PEOPLE EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS AND HARDSHIP. HIGHLIGHTS FROM THIS PROGRAM INCLUDE: 179,567 HOT MEALS SERVED, 7,965 VOUCHERS FOR CLOTHING ISSUED, 2,237 BAGS OF EMERGENCY FOOD DISTRIBUTED, 1,538 VISITS TO OUR COMPUTER LAB RECORDED, AND 1,143 HYGIENE KITS PROVIDED. ADDITIONALLY, ON-SITE PARTNERS PROVIDED 2,331 SHOWERS AND 764 HAIRCUTS. OF PARTICULAR NOTE, 406 INDIVIDUALS UTILIZED OUR MAIL SERVICES TO RECEIVE JOB CORRESPONDENCE, IDENTIFICATION, HEALTH INSURANCE CARDS, AND OTHER VITAL DOCUMENTS. IN 2024, OUR PARRAMORE CAMPUS EMBARKED ON A MAJOR RENOVATION THAT WILL DOUBLE HYGIENE ACCESS, EXPAND SHELTER FROM EXTREME WEATHER, AND INTRODUCE A CLINIC AND WELLNESS CENTER. WITH AN ANTICIPATED OPENING DATE IN THE FALL OF 2026, THIS IMPORTANT PROJECT WOULD NOT BE POSSIBLE WITHOUT THE CITY OF ORLANDO, ORANGE COUNTY, CENTRAL FLORIDA'S CONTINUUM OF CARE, ADVENTHEALTH, ORLANDO HEALTH, AND MORE THAN 50 FAMILY FOUNDATIONS. IN AUGUST OF 2025 THE CHRISTIAN SERVICE CENTER, IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE CITY OF ORLANDO'S COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY, LAUNCHED 407 CONNECT - A MOBILE PROGRAM DESIGNED TO EXPAND EMERGENCY SLEEPING CAPACITY AND CONNECT INDIVIDUALS TO PERMANENT HOUSING. THESE TWO CUSTOM-BUILT BUSES ARE EQUIPPED WITH CLIMATE-CONTROLLED SLEEPING PODS, ONBOARD RESTROOMS, AND SECURE STORAGE FOR PERSONAL BELONGINGS. WITH ONE BUS DESIGNATED FOR WOMEN AND CHILDREN AND ONE BUS DESIGNATED FOR MEN, THE PROGRAM OFFERS UP TO 42 ADULTS AND CHILDREN A PLACE TO REST SAFELY EACH NIGHT.

    Expenses $2,953,753 · Grants $1,575,013 · Revenue $131,706

  • CHRISTIAN SERVICE CENTER'S DAILY BREAD PROGRAM PROVIDES HOT, NUTRITIOUS MEALS TO INDIVIDUALS EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS. IN 2025, WE SERVED 179,567 MEALS ACROSS OUR DOWNTOWN ORLANDO AND OCOEE CAMPUSES, AVERAGING NEARLY 500 MEALS A DAY. MEALS INCLUDE BREAKFAST, LUNCH AND DINNER THROUGHOUT THE WEEK. MEALS ARE COOKED FRESH ON-SITE USING FOOD DONATED BY LOCAL GROCERY STORES, AND THE PROGRAM IS SUPPORTED DAILY BY 20-25 VOLUNTEERS. GUESTS ARE SERVED WITH DIGNITY IN OUR AIR-CONDITIONED DINING HALL OR SHADED OUTDOOR SPACES. FOR MANY, DAILY BREAD IS THEIR FIRST INTERACTION WITH THE CHRISTIAN SERVICE CENTER, AND OFTEN BECOMES THE ENTRY POINT TO CASE MANAGEMENT, HOUSING SUPPORT, AND ADDITIONAL WRAPAROUND SUPPORTIVE SERVICES. THE PROGRAM OPERATES THROUGH A HIGHLY EFFICIENT FOOD RECOVERY MODEL. A DEDICATED DRIVER COLLECTS FOOD DONATIONS 5 DAYS A WEEK FROM LOCAL GROCERY PARTNERS AND DELIVERS THE DONATIONS TO BOTH CAMPUSES. ROUGHLY 90% OF OUR FOOD IS DONATED, WITH PRIMARY EXPENSES GOING TOWARD TRANSPORTATION, PANTRY STAPLES, AND PAPER GOODS.

    Expenses $1,365,791 · Grants $188,372

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
