An offering of $12,972, which was given by show attendees at the International Christian Retail Show's Sunday evening worship event, was presented to Prodigal Gatherings, a Denver ministry that creates safe places for homeless and runaway youth and children who live on the streets or in the motels in inner-city Denver.

Each year, show attendees donate funds to support local ministries in convention cities, particularly youth and children outreach and support programs. Industry suppliers have donated Bibles, books, music and children's resources as part of the offering.
