DONATE HERE TO SUPPORT OUR MISSION
 

Sharing the love and hope of Christ while empowering our neighbors with education, employment, and crisis support.

 

As February comes to a close, we’re reminded of the strength and generosity within our community. This month has already been filled with moments of inspiration and connection, and there’s still so much more ahead!

We want to extend a heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us for Leadership Day, where we explored Untraditional Pathways to Success. The day was filled with empowering stories, insightful discussions, and meaningful connections that left us all inspired to continue building stronger futures together.


If you haven’t already, don’t forget to schedule your appointment for Tax Prep Services! This free service will continue through April 10th. Details on how to sign up are provided below.


Looking forward to March, we are thrilled to invite you to enjoy the talents of our New Hope 21st Century Community Learning Center students as they present Matilda: The Musical. This lively, heartwarming, and FREE production promises an evening of fun, creativity, and community spirit for all ages. Come out and show your support!


Finally, while it may seem far off, planning is already underway for our annual Gregg Berens Memorial “I Golf Because I CARE” Fundraising Tournament on October 17, 2025. This event is a cherished tradition that brings us together for a day of golf, fun, and community impact. Save the date, Friday, October 17, 2025! Interested in becoming a tournament sponsor? Contact us below for more information.

Your continued support fuels every program, event, and initiative here at The CARE Center. Together, we’re making a lasting difference in Southeast Madison County, and we couldn’t do it without you.


Blessings,

We are seeking responsible male mentors for the school day and our after-school programs. These mentors are crucial in providing guidance and support to the youth in our community. Applicants must be available to meet with their assigned child at school at least once a week during the school day or our after-school program and pass a background check. If you have a passion for making a difference in the lives of young people, we encourage you to reach out and become a mentor.

All donations help ensure food stability for our neighbors during difficult times. Thank you for your support!
