Our Impact
We have taken decisive steps at the inception of our charity to do something that splinters the discriminative economic and social policies that marginalise groups by not establishing or subscribing to quota systems. Leaving us able to provide relief to all who walk through our hubs' doors.
Partnerships in the community are vital in our charity's structure to reach our families and individuals in need. Through our network hubs and partnerships with local stores and businesses in Thurrock, we are able to fill our emergency care parcels to the brim with essential supplies and easily get them to you.
We are acting on apparent and emergent issues as a combination of system failures and global emergencies breaking down communities. We will echo the voices of the unheard and support campaigns for sustained reforms on systematic failures in private and public spheres.
The deep generosity of our donors, volunteers, partners and team through their dedicated time, prayer, money and donated supplies has encouraged a contagious spirit of giving, support and is leading to opened hands and hearts in our community.
