  • Description: We are a Christian, non-profit organization bound to the service of helping our fellow persons with their needs. We provide help in several areas, but mainly with: Food, Clothing, Counseling. As a non-profit group we survive by contributions, donations and special pricing of needed items that are used to provide the basic help to those in need. Our workers volunteer their time and labor so that we can provide these much needed items to the needy free of charge. This group was formed in June '77 by one man and his wife, Bill and Wilma Yocum, who had a vision to help those needing a helping hand. They were supported by Grand Avenue Baptist Church. It has since grown from helping just a few people each month to helping over 100 plus families each month, and the workers from just 2 people to over 70 people who are involved in some way.
