The goal is to raise a total of $75,000 and we're 75% of the way there! Can you give today to help your neighbors facing financial difficulties?

Many are asking what NETWorks is doing to respond to community changes caused by Covid-19 responses. -- , . And we are doing it with a faith that God will provide us with what we need, when we need it. A theology of abundance, not scarcity or fear. But we also know God acts through people--we see it every day. Thank you. What does all that mean today? 1. We are doubling the amount ...of food we distribute to each pantry visitor. 2. We are lifting some of the limits on food and personal care choices for our pantry visitors. 3. We are instituting social distance policies to protect our volunteers, visitors, and staff. 4. We have implemented policies to protect our volunteers. 5. We are cleaning like crazy and washing our hands all the dang time! If things get more challenging re: personal contact, we may move to to a pre-packed bag of food and offer X # of bags per family depending on family size. We have not implemented that yet. If infections build as expected, please let us know if you know of ill or house-bound people who cannot get to us for food. We have potential measures to address that circumstance. If you want to provide food or funds (for us to buy food), please see the links below for Amazon, WalMart, and our giving page.

2020 has been quite a year, and we really appreciate the amazing support from this community! Here is our current needs list. Please note that we are closed for the holidays (December 20, 2020 through January 4, 2021), so you have two weeks to shop and collect donations to drop off on January 5, 2021. After two weeks off, we will be ready to hit the ground running in the new year!
