DONATE
Since 1978, the Chattanooga Area Leadership Prayer Breakfast (CALPB) has been led entirely by volunteers and every dollar invested in the event goes directly toward essential expenses. Each year, ticket sales do not fully cover the total cost of hosting the Breakfast. The difference is made possible by generous partners whose support sustains this longstanding tradition. Because the CALPB is covered by the 501(c)(3), non-profit status of the Chattanooga Christian Community Foundation, which does business as The Generosity Trust (TGT), contributions are tax-deductible to the full extent permitted by law, and each one plays a meaningful role in continuing this important work. For credit card or another type of online gift, please click the "Donate" button below, and you will be directed to the TGT credit card processing site. Checks should be made payable to The Generosity Trust, with "Prayer Breakfast" in the memo line, and mailed to The Generosity Trust, 345 Frazier Avenue, Unit 205, Chattanooga, TN 37405. Thank you!
