Hygiene Kit Provision: Personal hygiene kits are assembled and delivered to several area shelters every month. Other families in need can contact the ministry to receive kits as well. These basic essentials are a core part of our outreach to women and children because they are so important to health and wellness, but many cannot afford to purchase these necessities.

Other Living Expenses: Another key element of our ministry is assisting families with food, gasoline, or other necessary living expenses when they find that their resources do not cover the full costs each month. Grocery provision is usually supplied in the form of gift cards from local stores. We also offer gasoline gift cards for travel to and from work, school, or job interviews. And we will give prepaid phone cards for the purpose of job hunting or emergency use.

Provision for rent or other living expenses is offered on a case-by-case basis after thorough review. Assistance with utilities (such as power) includes referrals to local agencies, and supplemental funding where necessary.

Hat & Mitten Drives: In the cooler months, our ministry has often been generously blessed by the efforts of local families, elementary school classes, and Girl Scout Troops. Last winter alone, over 500 hat and mitten sets were donated for the children we serve.
