Newburgh Ministry Inc

MEDICAL AID RELIEF

The Newburgh Ministry provides essential services to individuals experiencing homelessness. Funding was used to maintain the Ministry's commitment to offering essential hygiene items to homeless individuals and families. The Ministry sees approximately 60 individuals weekly in need of these items, and their continued ability to provide them helps the Ministry to foster connection with the community and show that the organization and those who support their programs care about them and their families. A bar of soap or toothpaste may be merely an afterthought for us, but for these individuals it can be the difference between hopelessness and renewing their self-esteem and dignity. By offering guidance, resources and support, the Ministry empowers those served to rebuild their lives and establish stable, long-term housing solutions.

PROVIDER OF SHELTER AND RESOURCES

Funding was used for the Ministry's hygiene closet, one of the programs that has a broad impact on the lives of clients. By providing items such as toothpaste, soap, toilet paper and shampoo, the organization is able to address one of the most glaring issues with poverty that is often overlooked. Clients come from the community at large or one of two shelters. During one of the busiest weeks, 60-70 individuals will come to the Ministry in need of these basic items. Funding from the Foundation means that families don't need to make a choice between food on the table or a new toothbrush for their child. It also demonstrates that there are people who out there who want to help and care about their plight - the heart of philanthropy.
