Thanksgiving & special needs

In many parts of our city, bare kitchens offer no flavorful aromas, furnaces produce no heat and threadbare coats offer little warmth. Children are trying to fill their empty stomachs, and their infrequent meals are neither nourishing nor substantial. These people are among the truly disadvantaged who need your help to improve their chances for success. Level the slope of that nearly vertical path out of poverty and homelessness for so many families. Families like Brittany Campbell, whose success story and video are linked below.

Christmas & special needs
What's on your holiday wish list this year? A necklace or watch, or the latest fashion accessory? Maybe it's family and friends amid twinkling lights, decorations and fires in the hearth. For many in our community, it's a more basic list – food for their kids, a warm winter coat, training to find a job or better job, a safe place at night, a home of their own. Please help these families and individuals in desperate need.
