The John Gloucester House is a ministry of the Presbyterian Community Ministries of the Delaware Valley (www.presbyphl.org). Our mission is supported by the involvement of numerous contributors.
FUNDING
Traditionally, 70% of the general funding for JGH is provided by the Presbytery of Philadelphia. The total modest budget ranging between $150,000 - $200,000 provides for staff salaries and some operating monies. Twenty percent of the budget needs is funded by a number of Presbytery of Philadelphia congregations in the Philadelphia region. The Archdiocese of Philadelphia, various grants, and generous individuals contribute the remaining 10% of the budget.
Other regional congregations and groups have donated time, supplies and elbow grease for the maintenance of our building. Volunteers staff the programs.
VOLUNTEER
