During “normal” times, Interfaith helps 17,000 people annually in our community from children to seniors. About 10% of those people are homeless. That means 15,000+ are working people, families, seniors, and veterans who have been faced with challenges needing support from staff and volunteers at Interfaith Community Services.

Now, with the COVID-19 pandemic, the number of people needing assistance has quadrupled. These are working, productive citizens who never imagined how their lives would be turned upside down due to the pandemic. They are your neighbor, friend, a homeless person or stranger you encountered at the store who is too embarrassed or ashamed to ask for help.
