Important Note: Crown of Compassion is not a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. This means that while your donation will directly support the ministry, it is not tax-deductible. We want to be transparent about this from the start.
Why Your Support Matters
Crown of Compassion, founded and led by Dave Henning, is a Christ-centered ministry designed to bring encouragement and hope to workers who have been downsized, laid off, or are struggling with unemployment. Job loss can shake more than finances—it can affect faith, identity, and purpose.
Through book summaries, devotionals, blog posts, and Christian reflections, Dave brings God’s word and encouragement to those experiencing transition. This is a mission of compassion, not profit, and your donation helps make this work possible.
How Your Gift Helps
Unlike many ministries that operate under a nonprofit structure, Crown of Compassion is sustained directly by Dave and those who believe in the mission. Donations go to very practical, mission-critical needs:
- Books & Study Resources
Every book that Dave summarizes is purchased out of pocket. Donations help cover the cost of books that form the foundation of his blog posts and devotionals. - Website Hosting & Maintenance
A stable and secure website ensures unemployed workers can access resources anytime. Donations defray the costs of hosting, technical upkeep, and security. - Internet Marketing & Outreach
From email newsletters to social media outreach, spreading the message costs time and money. With your help, Crown of Compassion can reach new people searching for hope after job loss, or seeking spiritual guidance of any kind.
A Stewardship Partnership
Crown of Compassion is blessed by a special partnership with OnYourMark.com LLC, Dave’s web design and marketing firm. OnYourMark provides all hosting, design, and online marketing support at half the regular price—stretching every donated dollar further. This unique arrangement ensures that resources go where they are needed most: to the ministry’s core mission.
Examples of Impact
Your contribution, no matter the size, goes a long way:
$22.50 | A book for review and summary on the blog |
$50 | One month of secure web hosting |
$100 | A social media or email campaign to reach new readers |
$250 | Several months of hosting plus resources for book studies |
Every gift directly fuels the creation and sharing of Christian encouragement with workers in transition.
