When the fiscal year started in July 2020, we had no idea that at the end of the year, we would still be facing challenges around the COVID-19 pandemic. Throughout the year, we have continued to adapt and figure out new ways to serve our community. The services we provide are essential for refugees and immigrants, older adults and people with disabilities, children and families, and people experiencing hunger and homelessness.

With your support, we have found that blessings abound! You have blessed thousands of people this year across all of our program areas. We distributed an unprecedented amount of financial support for rental and utility assistance. Together, we found new ways to reach people, like providing digital literacy training to help refugees access services, and delivering activities, food, and supplies to families and older adults. Church partners stepped up to provide shelter throughout the day, not just overnight. Community members donated necessary supplies to keep thousands of people safe, fed, and healthy.

We adapted to meet the needs of our clients. And because of you, we were able to stay strong and continue on into the future. Blessings abound. When the world changed as we knew it, you were there to help people in need. Read on to learn more about the difference you made.
