Grace Care Center Foundation

All too often, poverty alleviation efforts are episodic or focused on quick fixes. Sustainable care builds trusting relationships for the long haul and commits to leveraging that trust to address root issues through loving community and wrap-around services. Immediate relief is often a necessary step in the process but a long-term view addresses the internal or external factors that are keeping a family in poverty. This approach leads to freedom and growth for a family, and ultimately newfound sustainability in their life. All of this depends on a committed group of volunteers who are open to their own transformation while they serve. Sustainable care works best when clients, volunteers, and donors are all learning from each other. The Grace Care Center is one excellent example of a sustainable care community.
