Faith Mission

At 81, Carol never imagined she would need a homeless shelter, but a sudden housing loss and declining health left her with few options. “The landlord wanted me out of his apartment building because I was having so many falls. I think he was afraid of the liability.” With the help of staff and case managers, Carol is now working toward assisted living. When asked where she would be without Faith Mission, her answer was simple. “I’d be on the streets.”

Thanks to Senator Jon Husted for sending a proclamation in honor of our 60th anniversary!

Thanks to the financial marketing leadership team from Nationwide for volunteering in our donation center! Our clothing section is so organized now!

A huge thank-you to Veronica, Razina and the rest of their Bible study group for making care packages for our residents! Each bag contains hygiene supplies, clothing, snacks and fun items like activity books.

A huge thank you to Tonya and the team from Aligning Her-Aligning Hearts for visiting the women's shelter to hand out goody bags! Each bag contained a journal, a bracelet, and a pair of pajamas in the correct size for the recipient. The residents were so grateful for their gifts!

Thanks to Akili Christian High School students for volunteering in the kitchen! They were very helpful!

Thanks to GTU BBQ for providing BBQ and ribs to residents of our Lancaster shelter! They even had someone who played the piano! The group enters KCBS-sanctioned competitions and needed to practice but did not want to waste food. We were happy to help!

PSA: We love it when people donate needed and requested items for clients. However, we do not love it when people dump items we don't even accept outside our door. We always have to throw these items away, and it just makes it worse for staff when the items are rained on and sometimes worse. So please, donate used clothing and other items we don't accept to one of the wonderful other non-profits who do, and please do not ever dump items outside the door of any org! Thank you!

Thank you to frequent supporter ODW Logistics for serving lunch to our residents!

We honor the brave individuals who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country.
