This Easter, demonstrate God’s love for the “least of these” with a meal for the physically and spiritually hungry.
Your generous gift will help hurting souls begin a life-changing journey from a place of hunger, loneliness and despair to one of hope and new meaning in God’s unfailing love.
The meal and kindness these folks experience will lead many of them to return for our ongoing Christian ministry, where hearts are touched and lives are transformed.
Make a donation to help those who would otherwise have an empty stomach and very little hope this Easter.

How you can help the Homeless
What do you do when you see someone holding up a sign, "Will Work for Food"? Do you roll down your window and give them money? Do you pretend you didn't see them?
Nobody likes to be confronted by the homeless - their needs often seem too overwhelming - but we all want to treat them fairly and justly.
Here are some simple guidelines to equip you to truly help the homeless people you meet:
Never give cash to a homeless person
Too often, well intended gifts are converted to drugs or alcohol - even when the "hard luck" stories they tell are true. If the person is hungry, buy them a sandwich and a beverage.
Talk to the person with respect.
Taking time to talk to a homeless person in a friendly, respectful manner can give them a wonderful sense of civility and dignity. And besides being just neighborly, it gives the person a weapon to fight the isolation, depression and paranoia that many homeless people face.
Recognize that homeless people (and their problems) are not all the same.
The homeless are as diverse as the colors of a rainbow. The person you meet may be a battered women, an addicted veteran, someone who is lacking job skills...the list goes on.
