We Care is a nonprofit, community based agency organized in 1989 by local clergy to help support and fill the needs of the homeless and low income families and individuals appearing at Church doors asking for assistance. In the beginning we provided just food and clothing. We have progressed to the point where we are able to offer more long term assistance with food and transportation vouchers and some housing and utility assistance. We also offer assistance with the filling of prescription medication on a one time basis while our clients apply for medical aid. We offer not just a hand out but a hand up. We assist the client regardless of race, creed or gender. We assist all ages. We believe in encouraging clients to persist in following through with the referrals we give for longer term and more complete, permanent assistance. We are an ecumenical organization with community support from local service clubs, churches and schools.
