About Us

GIVE A HELPING HAND TO THOSE WHO NEED IT!

BUILDING OUR COMMUNITY BY ASSISTING THOSE IN NEED

We are a group of people here in Stevens Point on a mission to build our community by assisting those in need among us, and encouraging others to get involved. We run programs such as The Place of Peace (community meal for those in need), the Kids Closet (children’s clothing pantry), Tree Huggers (scarf project to keep the homeless and people struggling with poverty warm), and the Warming Center (winter sleeping shelter for the homeless).

CHARITY IS A VIRTUE OF THE HEART,
& NOT OF THE HANDS

Our Programs

Place of Peace

Each week, people of all walks of life gather together at The Place of Peace to share a community meal, prayers, conversation, and their lives. Our cooks come from all over Stevens Point and Central Wisconsin and the menu varies widely.

Warming Center

Homelessness is on the rise in the country, and this includes Stevens Point. Because of this steady rise, the Hope Center has often been at capacity and people have been sleeping unsheltered. Keeping these people off the streets, out of jail, and safe is not easy and needs the support of volunteers like you.

Kids Closet

One of our co-chairs, Tiffani, is a mother of five children, as well as a foster parent in our local community. During a Place of Peace meal she was noticing children were attending in clothing that was either torn, tattered, or just didn’t fit. Having five kids herself, she could only image what low income and single parent households must deal with when the monkeys grow like palm trees! Inspired she started gathering all of the gently used kids closthes she could find.

Tree Huggers

Located at the public library in Stevens Point, a colorfully dressed tree stands. Wrapped in scarves, hats, and mittens of all sizes and colors each has a simple note that states, “I am not lost. If you are cold, please take me to keep warm.”
