Outreach Community Ministries Testimonials

In the past few years I have tried to take care of my stuff on my own. But at the last minute I say, ‘where do I turn?’ WYFS is a good place to go.

- Cheron, Case Management Services client

It’s a blessing to watch her change and know I played a part in her growth.

- Sarah, Big Buddy mentor

I don’t know what I would have done if OCC and the donors hadn’t helped my family. I am so grateful for the support of everyone involved.

- Murisa, College Opportunity Program

Outreach has opened a light and allowed me to be the person I’ve always wanted to be.

- Lana, Transitions graduate

We seniors need to keep our minds going. When we do, we don’t think about our illness. When we know we have resources, it lifts our spirits.

- Annette, Older Adults Program

Not only do you provide financial support but you provide encouragement. Sometimes all you need is a ‘go ahead, you can do it.’

- Tulanda, Case Management Services client

If you need somewhere stable to live and you have dreams to pursue, you can come to OCM and make yourself better.

- Marketta, Transitions graduate

It really helps to have affordable after school care that I need to stay employed as a single mother.

I love that there are staff that really talk with us and care about us. The houseparents are like family and will always be part of our lives

I was hours away from homelessness when Jubilee Village took me in.
