In short, that means that donors who are concerned about helping families have simple, decent places to live are maximizing their generosity when they give to The Fuller Center for Housing. And because The Fuller Center consistently maintains minimal overhead from its headquarters, those gifts build more homes, not unnecessary bureaucracy.
Some overhead costs are inevitable, but The Fuller Center is committed to making the most of every single dollar generously donated.
“I’m sometimes asked how it is that we can keep our overhead expenses so low and our program funding so high,” Fuller Center President David Snell said. “It’s simple, really — we’re careful with how we spend money! We own our office campus, so there’s no rent or mortgage to pay. Our salaries are modest but adequate. Our organizational structure transfers the responsibility for our work to our trusted covenant partners so we don’t have to maintain layers of bureaucracy to sustain the work.
“In short, we take the Biblical principle of stewardship seriously, knowing that every dollar we save is one that can help a family in need to have a decent place to call home,” he added.
