About Us

Our organization began as a group of volunteers, all serving together at a local food pantry for many years. Many from this core group worked together as team members on various international mission trips. We remain committed each and every day to expanding our desire to serve others locally and regionally. We do this through organizing small team mission trips as well as local and community projects. 

Our MISSION is to love, encourage and serve others. We create and support projects which assist the poor and oppressed, or any person in need by providing hope and help. It is our 

to nurture human transformation through love, kindness and generosity.

We would not be able to do this without the endless hours of time and compassion given by our volunteers and the continued generosity of those who donate.
