Find Exactly What You Need Today
At GROW our mantra is Kindness without Judgment.
We believe that everyone, regardless of their backgrounds, should have access to the same opportunities and resources – that’s why our mantra is ‘kindness without judgment.” We are committed to providing nourishment, hygiene access and other services through our personal relationships and acts of kindness. If you’re struggling with homelessness, loneliness, hunger, hygiene, addiction, or something else, please reach out at one of our dinners. Our volunteers are here to help.
Below are some of the additional available services through GROW. You can learn more about these services and how to access them by speaking with a volunteer at a Meal Service.
