Helping Hands
To be the compassionate presence of Jesus in the midst of our member's and neighbor's financial crises, the Helping Hands Fund can help with utility bills, rent, and transportation needs. Because our fund cannot help with large expenses, we connect people with other agencies and resources in the area.
