| The Vision |
|---|
| Compassionate caregivers, serving the homeless, near-homeless, and the working poor. |
| The Mission |
| The Emergency Aid Coalition is an interfaith association of congregations covenanted to meet basic human needs, physical and spiritual, and promote the self-sufficiency of our clients. The EAC provides practical support such as food, clothing, assistance in securing limited financial aid and life skills instruction. |
| Since 1983, the Emergency Aid Coalition has served the needs of the poor. By forming an interfaith coalition, the EAC pooled volunteer, financial, food and clothing resources to make a greater impact on the lives of the near-homeless and the working poor. |
| Volunteer Opportunities |
| We also ask you to become involved. Volunteer to make sandwiches or serve a meal from our Food Pantry, sort clothes and assist clients in our Clothing Center, interview clients for our Aid to Families program or become a Faithful Friend to a homebound person. |
| No matter what your faith, we ask you to join us with your prayers for the people we serve, and for the volunteers and staff of the Emergency Aid Coalition who give so much to our community. |
