Times are tough and our economy is being rocked. People are losing jobs, jobs are shutting down, and, honestly, no-one saw it coming.
“During a public health crisis like this, our kids, seniors, and working families who struggle to make ends meet on a daily basis are impacted even more by having to choose what’s least costly: spending money on childcare or not going to work so they can stay home and care for their child. Schools are closed which reduces immediate access to meals. Buses are not picking up our kids which means they must find their way to whatever school is open providing free meals. Senior congregate meal sites have shut down. Hourly wages are scaled back. Entire industries are seeing reduction in patrons and lower revenues.”
In light of these realities, Cruciform has created the “Center for Community Empowerment” as a non-profit community development corporation to empower our neighbors through food distributions, Christian counseling, youth mentoring, and financial literacy workshops.
