What we do:• Pay it Forward Initiative- Connecting people with resources and services. Helping people receive new/gently used clothing, shoes, toys, diapers, wipes, food, personal hygiene items, etc. Referrals as needed to other organizations. Founded Pay it Forward ‘Christmas’ in Cass County in December 2015. When the collection first began it was all gently used items donated. In December 2022, the initiative helped 22 families.• Providing support and contributing to other community services/agencies/organizations that help people in the local community. Assisted with creating and operating a Resource Closet at a local church.• Fundraising and events- helping those battling financial hardships due to unforeseen circumstances. These circumstances could include, but are not limited to, unexpected death or illness. Coordinated a jeep/motorcycle drive to assist a local family who had lost their teenage son to suicide. During this event other agencies were able to share information on suicide prevention.Our hope is to be available to any person who may need it in the community. We do reserve the right to ask for proof of financial burden from those who are seeking assistance to ensure that help is truly needed.
