Shepherd of the Hills is proud to support the communities of Taney County and Stone County, Missouri — our neighbors and our home. Our donation program is focused on creating real, visible impact right here in the Branson area.
Because we receive a high volume of requests from across the country, we’ve created a simple application process to make sure our giving goes where it will matter most.
Your organization must meet all of the following requirements to be considered.
Your organization must hold current IRS 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status. You will need to provide your Tax ID / EIN.
Your organization must primarily serve residents of Taney County or Stone County, Missouri.
The donation must be used as a raffle prize, auction item, or similar element of a public fundraising event.
Your application must be submitted at least 45 days before your event date. Late requests cannot be reviewed.
Each organization may submit one application per calendar year.
If your organization received a prior donation, you must have submitted your post-event follow-up to remain eligible.
Our process is designed to be straightforward and fair to every applicant.
Complete the form on this page at least 45 days before your event. Have your IRS determination letter and a copy of your organization’s letterhead ready to upload. Requests sent by email or phone are not reviewed.
