Because of your generous support we were able to assist and support local organizations, several churches, schools, and students in various stages of their academic careers including those matriculating at Technical Colleges, Universities and Medical Schools. We were able to serve Veterans and their families, Essential Workers and families in crisis. Because of you, we were able to provide health screenings, diagnostic medical screenings and purchase emergency medical equipment. Children were given tools to better their futures through career development, entrepreneurship, anger management and health education classes and mentoring. Every year we are able to expand our efforts to extend God’s Love from Him – To Us – To Others. THANK YOU!
