Barnabas Foundation has reached a significant milestone — assisting with the distribution of $600 million in gifts to charities, since its inception in 1976.

In the aftermath of recent hurricanes, and with unprecedented rainfall and flood damage, there is a tremendous need for disaster relief in the affected regions. Barnabas Foundation member ministries are on the ground, providing immediate and long-term support to those in need.

Barnabas Foundation has moved headquarters from Tinley Park, Ill., to Crete, Ill. More spacious than the previous facilities, the new location positions Barnabas Foundation for future growth and enhanced services for the ministries and churches we serve.

Heather M. Day has joined the Barnabas Foundation team as director of marketing. In this role, her top priority will be implementing new and innovative ways to support members and churches in their efforts to better communicate with their supporters about planned giving and stewardship.
