Poverty is a complex problem. Solving it requires solutions that integrate people and community resources. We connect people in need with people who want to help and turn compassion into action.
Through partnerships with caring local church congregations and volunteers, we provide safe shelter, meals, training, and care to help families find gainful employment, become stable in a permanent home, and regain financial independence.
During 2022, Family Promise of Longview helped 87 families who were at risk of homelessness with rent and/or utilities.
►This assistance impacted 276 individuals, including 176 children.
