Giving / Philanthropy

Since our inception in September of 1996, Four Gates has contributed a portion of our profits throughout the year to local, national and international organizations. Our commitment to the values of generosity, giving and philanthropy are part of why we do what we do for a living.

Some of the dozens of non-profit charitable organizations include:

American Forests, the oldest national nonprofit conservation organization in the country, advocates for the protection and expansion of forests.

Andre House Shelter services in Phoenix, Arizona.

Located in the heart of the Capital Mall District, we make our services available to hundreds of people in need every day. André House was founded by two Holy Cross Priests in 1984, combining elements of the Catholic Worker movement with the charism of the Congregation of Holy Cross. We dedicate ourselves to serving Jesus through others, as we are challenged in the Gospel, "...I was a stranger, and you welcomed me. I was naked, and you gave me clothing. I was sick, and you took care of me. I was in prison, and you visited me.” (Matthew 25:35-36)

Every young person at Covenant House receives a warm bed, food, health and wellness services, a case manager, and, most important of all, unconditional love and absolute respect.

One Tree Planted, reforestion both in the USA and in other countries.

Every One Tree Planted project has its own unique challenges and opportunities, but what holds true no matter where you go is that when done correctly, reforestation changes lives for the better. When you Plant trees for Impact, you are making it possible for our reforestation partners, who have dedicated their lives to restoring the landscapes they love, to do what they do best: plant trees where they are needed the most. Reforestation helps the environment by guaranteeing or accelerating the re-establishment of healthy forest structure after extreme events such as forest fires, regrowing the forest canopy, and preserving biodiversity within the ecosystem.
