EVERY PIECE MAKES A DIFFERENCE

Be a vital piece in our Community of Care. Please give today to help turn hurt into healing, shadows into shelter, and hunger into hope!

As a Community Resource Center supporter, you complete the picture of hope for our neighbors in need of food, stability, and safety. You make a meaningful difference in the lives of so many, including children escaping domestic violence, vulnerable seniors, and families facing hunger and homelessness.

You help change lives like Oliver's. At just five years old, Oliver witnessed his mom endure physical and emotional abuse. His mom, Mia, bravely broke free and turned to the Community Resource Center for help. At our shelter, Oliver and his baby brother found the safe and loving home that every child deserves. With our caring staff's support, Mia received counseling and help finding a job. Today, Mia and her boys are thriving and hopeful for a brighter future.

Please give by August 30th to help us reach our $50,000 goal to help more families in need!
