| OUR ORGANIZATION PARTNERS WITH LOCAL CHURCHES BY FILLING GAPS IN COMMUNITY SERVICES. IN 2014, 632 FAMILIES WERE SERVED, PROVIDING DONATED GOODS SUCH AS FURNITURE, CLOTHING, HOUSEHOLD SUPPLIES, PAPER GOODS, PERSONAL HYGIENE ITEMS, ETC. AFTER ASSESSING AND QUALIFYING NEEDS, WE MAY ALSO REFER PARTICIPANTS TO OTHER AGENCIES FOR SERVICES. | $29,991 |
| IN THE FALL OF 2013, THE ORGANIZATION HELD IT'S FIRST CLASSES IN PERSONAL FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT FOR RECIPIENTS OF SERVICES. THE GOAL IS TO HELP THEM LEARN TO MANAGE THEIR RESOURCES MORE EFFECTIVELY AND TO EVENTUALLY HELP THEM OVERCOME THE CIRCUMSTANCES THAT LED THEM TO SEEK ASSISTANCE. THE INSTRUCTION IS BIBLE-BASED, AND THE CLASSES ENABLED PARTICIPANTS TO ESTABLISH ONGOING RELATIONSHIPS WITH STAFF, VOLUNTEERS, AND CHURCHES. THIS FIRST CLASS WAS PROVIDED TO A TOTAL OF 6 PARTICIPANTS, AND REQUIRED THE EFFORTS OF NUMEROUS VOLUNTEERS IN SEVERAL CAPACITIES. DURING 2014, THIS ACTIVITY WAS EXPANDED STEADILY, SERVING 5 STUDENTS IN THE SPRING, 6 STUDENTS IN THE SUMMER, AND 11 STUDENTS IN THE FALL. PARTICIPANTS WHO HAD COMPLETED THE FIRST LEVEL OF COURSES WENT ON TO TAKE LEVEL II OF THE NEW IMAGE CLASS, AND WE ADDED A WELL-KNOWN INTERNATIONAL CLASS, ALPHA. WE WILL CONTINUE TO EXPAND THIS PROGRAM IN 2015 AND BEYOND. | $30,275 |
| IN MID-JULY OF 2013 THE ORGANIZATION OPENED A RETAIL LOCATION TO SELL CERTAIN DONATED GOODS TO THE COMMUNITY. THE PRIMARY PURPOSE OF THE OPERATION IS TO GENERATE REVENUE TO SUPPORT THE PROGRAM SERVICES AS IDENTIFIED IN THIS RETURN. THE STORE IS OPERATED WITH VOLUNTEER LABOR, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF A SMALL AMOUNT OF OVERSIGHT BY THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR. THIS ACTIVITY CONTINUED TO GROW DURING 2014, PROVIDING 11,600 TOWARD FUNDING THE EXEMPT PURPOSES AND ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS OF THE MINISTRY. | $23,556 |
| CREATING GIFTS OF LOVE - IN NOVEMBER OF 2014 WE HELD OUR 2ND ANNUAL PROGRAM FOR CHILDREN IN LOWER INCOME HOUSEHOLDS THROUGHOUT OUR SERVICE AREA. CHILDREN ARE INVITED FROM THE LOCAL SCHOOLS HAVING THE VERY HIGHEST PERCENTAGE OF CHILDREN ELIGIBLE FOR FREE LUNCHES UNDER THE FEDERAL SCHOOL NUTRITION PROGRAM, AS WELL AS CHILDREN FROM FAMILIES WHO HAVE ALREADY MET OUR CRITERIA FOR RECEIVING ASSISTANCE. THIS PROGRAM IS DESIGNED NOT TO PROVIDE GIFTS TO THE CHILDREN, BUT TO ASSIST THE CHILDREN IN MAKING GIFTS TO GIVE TO OTHERS (PARENTS, SIBLINGS, ETC.) AT CHRISTMAS. WE BELIEVE THAT TEACHING CHILDREN TO GIVE OF THEMSELVES IS A GIFT THEY WILL CARRY WITH THEM FOR THE REST OF THEIR LIVES. THIS YEAR, 109 CHILDREN PARTICIPATED ALONG WITH THEIR PARENTS, GRANDPARENTS, AND OTHERS. A TOTAL OF 45 COMMUNITY VOLUNTEERS ASSISTED IN THIS DAY-LONG ACTIVITY. DAY OF SERVICE - IN AUGUST OF 2014, WE HELD OUR 1ST ANNUAL COMMUNITY-WIDE DAY OF SERVICE. FROM OUR FAMILIES BEING SERVED, 5 WERE SELECTED TO RECEIVE VARIOUS HOME REPAIR PROJECTS, SUCH AS ADDING RAMPS, DECKS, FLOOR REPAIRS, LANDSCAPING, PAINTING, AND OTHER SIMILAR ACTIVITIES. PARTNERING WITH A CHRISTIAN RADIO STATION, THIS EVENT WAS WIDELY PROMOTED, SEEKING VOLUNTEERS TO PROVIDE THE MAN-POWER. ON THAT DAY, 123 VOLUNTEERS PARTICIPATED TO COMPLETE MUCH-NEEDED REPAIRS ON THESE HOMES. BACK-TO-SCHOOL - BACK-TO-SCHOOL SUPPLIES WERE ALSO DISTRIBUTED TO 55 CHILDREN WHOSE FAMILIES WERE RECEIVING ASSISTANCE THROUGH LOVE IN THE NAME OF CHRIST. EASTER DRAMA - OUR COMMUNITY IS BLESSED TO HAVE SEVERAL CHURCHES THAT PROVIDE HIGH-QUALITY EASTER DRAMAS THAT PORTRAY WHAT CHRIST HAS ALREADY DONE FOR MANKIND. TICKETS TO ONE OF THESE DRAMAS AT CORNERSTONE CHURCH OF AUGUSTA WERE PROVIDED TO 75 OF OUR NEIGHBORS-IN-NEED AND TO 52 OF OUR VOLUNTEERS. | $214 |
