Every year, Christ’s Loving Hands gives tens

We are committed to helping as many families as possible, and we are grateful for the support of our donors who give to support us in our mission.

Every month we give around $3,500 in financial assistance to our neighbors in need. The average assistance amount given is $179 and we typically assist twenty families a month.

top Volunteer needs
Food Delivery
Many of our clients are housebound due to illness or age, but still need food assistance. We will deliver food assistance to clients who are unable to physically come to the pantry.
Meal Delivery
Make, deliver and share a meal with a housebound neighbor! This is a great way to build relationships with people in our community and share with them the love of Christ, just by taking the time to share a meal with them.
Community Service
We are in need of volunteers who can assist elderly or disabled people with basic household tasks like yard work, cleaning, and organizing and small household maintenance. These opportunities are typically on an as-need basis and you would get an email as needs arise, but could also be ongoing. Level of commitment is up to you.
ACTS Program Developer
Help develop the ACTS Program workbook and process. The aim of ACTS is to help our clients articulate their goals, and then teach them not just one discipline, but the discipline of discipline that they can then apply to many areas of their life.
