The inherent worth and dignity of every human, our recognition of the interdependent web of life, and our belief that the “Beloved Community” must be realized through human effort – requires our attention to how we share the wealth of our planet. As an outgrowth of these principles, we recognize the obligations of society to ensure that all people are able to obtain for themselves and their families the basic material needs of food, shelter, education, and safety.
We address the needs of low-income people and disparities related to low-income populations. We use our “people power” to help several organizations provide services and care to meet immediate needs. Following is a list of some of our projects:
-
Community Food Response
-
Family Promise/Interfaith Hospitality Network
-
Saturday Noon Meals
-
Hawthorne Helps
-
Riverside Central Elementary Reading Volunteers
-
Tax-Aide Program for Lower-Income Individuals & Families
