Borrego Ministers Association

Assist families unable to pay housing expenses, usually rent, as an unexpected event. We cannot assist with rent on a continuing or long term basis, however, each need is evaluated on a case by case basis. We were able to assist 45 families throughout the year to cover part of their rent expenses to avoid eviction. This problem worsens in the summer since many seasonal workers lose employment. $37,951 in assistance was provided during the year. This program is growing and we hope to receive adequate revenue to continue. All work is volunteer. There are no service expenses.
