In 2015, three leading churches committed to merge their congregations’ financial and volunteer resources to provide short-term emergency assistance to individuals and families in crisis.
Given their support, The Harrelson Center established our Help Hub.
Today dozens of faith communities come together as annual Help Hub supporting organizations. Foundations and individuals join with their generosity to sustain this critical resource to stabilize housing, transportation, and healthcare.
Please consider contributing to our essential community collaboration.
If you are considering an annual commitment or grant, please contact outreach@harrelsoncenter.org to tour and learn more.
Over 60 volunteers serve weekly or monthly, collectively investing 2,300+ hours annually as Help Hub greeters, advisors, or in data entry.
