Emergency Assistance

Make a donation

In December 2022 alone, we distributed almost $4,500 in emergency rent and utility assistance—keeping 31 people safely sheltered. Every single head of household was a woman and most were single moms. ​Typical assistance per inquiry is $100-$300. The Mission & Engagement team is hoping to grow the emergency fund to match the rising cost of housing and utilities. ​You can donate to the Emergency Assistance fund below.

Village Church offers a limited amount of emergency rent or utility assistance to those who need temporary support. Applicants should meet the following criteria:
​
  1. Your household has received less than $500 in total assistance from Village Church for the calendar year (Jan. 1–Dec. 31).
  2. You are a resident in one of these five counties: Johnson, Jackson, Clay, Platte or Wyandotte.
  3. You are willing to provide the following personal information: Proof of identity (photo ID preferred), age, current address, number of household members & dependents, and estimate of annual income.
  4. (Utility assistance) You are able to provide a past-due electric, gas or water bill in the name of an adult household member.
  5. (Rent assistance) You are able to provide a current copy of your lease and a late payment or eviction notice, if applicable.

​Typical assistance per inquiry is $100-$300. The amount may vary based on available funding. Assistance must guarantee continued shelter, utility service or service restoration. This means that if you, a friend/relative, or an agency is paying any remaining balance in addition to assistance from Village Church, we ask that the funds are paid to the landlord or utility first before Village can make a payment.

Please note that Village Church is not a social service agency. We are grateful to be able to offer limited emergency assistance. However, the phone line is not always staffed. We appreciate your patience and understanding.
