Ways to Partner — Help Build Blue Ridge Haven
Join the Mission
Help Build the Haven.
Every family that finds rest here will do so because someone like you chose to partner with this mission.
Why Your Partnership Matters
Blue Ridge Haven cannot be built without you.
We are a nonprofit in the early stages of building a Christ-centered mountain retreat for autism families — a place that does not yet exist but is desperately needed. Every dollar given, every family sponsored, every hour volunteered, and every person who joins our Founders Circle moves us closer to opening our doors.
There are many ways to be part of this. Find the one that fits you.
Sponsor a Family
Give a family the gift of rest they could never afford on their own.
Many autism families live on the financial and emotional edge. Therapies, equipment, specialized care, and the daily demands of caregiving leave little room for rest — and even less for a retreat. A family sponsorship covers the full cost of a retreat experience for one family, from lodging to meals to programming.
You may never meet the family you sponsor. But they will know someone cared enough to give them a place to breathe again.
Founders Circle
Be one of the founding voices who made this haven possible.
The Founders Circle is a group of committed individuals, families, churches, and organizations who are making a founding-level investment in Blue Ridge Haven. Founders Circle members give at a sustained level during our development phase and are recognized as the people who made this mission possible from the very beginning.
As a Founders Circle member, you will receive regular mission updates, be invited to special events, and have your name permanently recognized at the Haven as one of its founding partners.
