Giving food, donating clothing, and assisting with housing are important but what if we could help people break out of the cycle of poverty?

We are ready to host our third Jobs for Life class (April 9 – June 4). The 16-week program provides job readiness training as well as a support strategy to help people be successful at work and at live. We believe this ministry has the potential for long-term impact on our community.

Here is a video overview about Jobs for Life:

We look forward to working with our local partnerships (New Hope Fellowship, the Lamb Center, and WFCM) to come alongside people who are unemployed or underemployed. As they refer clients, we will walk with them on the journey toward employment.

In order to begin our third Jobs For Life class, we need to put several important pieces together. We need mentors, teachers, and professionals. If you are a business manager or owner, would you be willing to consider working with us to help someone step into financial health?
