How do we help

 

We help by welcoming those who come by listening, assessing needs, and responding. Our response may involve providing access to food or clothing, assistance in essential bill payment such as utilities, housing mortgage or rent, car repairs, or prescriptions. We may provide transportation vouchers or certificates to local businesses. Often we provide a connection to other groups and/or services that may help immediately or in the long term. At no time do we give out cash.

We rely upon

 

We rely entirely upon volunteers working in teams to assist clients; others serve on the Board of Directors or in an administrative capacity.  Volunteers put their faith into practice in a direct and meaningful way.  Each volunteer receives special training.

We operate

 

We operate through the generosity and encouragement of Itasca churches, organizations, businesses, municipal offices, and individuals.  These friends are a vital part of the Itasca Walk-In Ministry.
