Dear Donors, Supporters, and Those Who Pray For Our Ministry,

As the year draws to a close, we are immensely grateful for how your generosity has blessed our mission. Your donations, whether monetary contributions, gently used household items, or furniture—have been instrumental in transforming lives and bringing hope to those in need.

Because of your kindness, we have been able to engage in a variety of impactful activities throughout 2024, including:

• Delivering items to shoppers and picking up donations for The Village Free Store.

• Sharing fresh, pesticide-free vegetables with local senior citizens, families, and a housing complex for tenants with disabilities.

• Hosting overnight camping for a Chicago-based Christian youth group in partnership with Camp Friedenswald.

• Donating clothing racks and hangers to Twelve Baskets Free Stores in Portage, MI.

• Transporting community clothing donations to other free or thrift stores across Southwest Michigan & Northern Indiana.

• Partnering with Cass County 4-H clubs to coordinate a stuffed animal drive, cleaning the items, and shipping 151 pieces to five nonprofits across the U.S. in emergency need. We are also finalizing our year-end reports, providing a detailed overview of our 2024 accomplishments. These will be available online soon, and we encourage you to review them to see the tangible difference your support has made.

During this season of thanksgiving, we extend our heartfelt thanks and prayers for you and your loved ones. Thank you for being an essential part of our mission. We look forward to continuing this journey together in 2025 and making an even more significant impact in our community.
