GET INVOLVED WHERE IT MATTERS
Friends, we are taking measured steps to alleviate hunger amongst the most destitute, and to restore dignity to those that are being robbed of it.
Poverty is a destructive force, but together, we can fight to combat it – one meal at a time, one article of clothing at a time.
We cannot do this work alone. If you would like to join our fight, please contact us regarding volunteer opportunities.
