Looking for an effective, grassroots ministry to support? Consider donating to The Feed this season. Here’s how The Feed empowers the unsheltered to move forward…
A hot shower, shave, clean hair and clean clothes including new undergarments and socks helps give a person self-respect and dignity – enough that they can interact with society in a different way. Cell phones and charging stations allow them to do interviews and keep appointments. Health and human services representatives get them signed up for very basic human needs including some food and medical insurance. With each hurdle overcome, they are more likely to succeed themselves. Onsite medical attention reduces ER visits and helps them get started taking better care of themselves physically. Social workers and case managers help maintain forward momentum. N/A public information reminds those with substance abuse issues that they don’t have to quit or suffer alone. Pet food & supplies means they don’t have to go without food so their pets can eat because the companionship and protection offered by their pets can be life-saving. A hot, freshly made, nutritious meal gives strength while a message of forgiveness and salvation through Christ, shared by others who came from the streets, gives Hope.
Not everyone is ready, prepared, or capable of taking all the steps they need to change their situation. At The Feed, we build relationships, hope, and futures.
We need your help. Join us! In whatever way you can… by donation (through the website www.thefeedsd.org, PayPal, Venmo, or check). Come volunteer in person. Do a coat, blanket, or sleeping bag drive. And pray. Always pray for us all.
