Fact #1: In 2010, we had amazing opportunities to address issues in our city from a coalition of churches, non-profits, and concerned citizens. We addressed a wide range of biblical justice issues inside the halls of city government, media, as well as the church. Thousands of people were reached – many heard about us and our message for the first time through our outreach opportunities, - and the movement is growing.
Fact #2: We are a movement. We provide our city officials, churches, colleges, and seminaries, and thousands of individual Christians, with resources and strategies to help them address the critical issues of homelessness, poverty, challenges in our educational system. We are also a voice on racism and diversity, urban ministry, , youth violence, community organizing, and much more.
Fact #3: Although our budget this year was small, our in-kind gifts were over $1.5 million, and our outreach to over 160 non-profits, and service hours in public service numbered in the thousands, and provided in-kind contributions to these organizations that they could not afford to pay for. Through our FEED 3 Program we are currently providing 1000 families a month groceries and this number is growing.
