A huge THANK YOU to the HOCO 2029 Lacrosse team for dedicating their time, energy, and resources to make a difference in our community!

This incredible team came together to prepare 150 lunches for Grassroots Crisis Center. Your willingness to step away from the field and serve others is such a wonderful example of teamwork, compassion, and community spirit.

We are so grateful for each and every one of you! You truly made a difference, one lunch and one act of kindness at a time.

A heartfelt THANK YOU to Dance Connections for selecting People Who Need People as a beneficiary of their semi-annual dance benefit concert. Thanks to the generosity of their dancers, families, and supporters, they raised and donated an amazing $4,000 to PWNP!

Dance Connections is so much more than a dance company. Their student companies are built on the values of excellence, kindness, empathy, service, and joy and inspire young dancers to use their talents to uplift others, proving that dance is not only an art form but also a powerful way to serve the community.

This generous donation will go a long way in helping the women and children in our local shelters and will provide much-needed new shoes for the children, giving them comfort, confidence, and a reminder that their community cares.

Thank you, Dance Connections, for showing that when talent and compassion come together, beautiful things happen. What an incredible example of using passion to make a difference!

A heartfelt THANK YOU to the amazing Cattail Creek Crocs Swim Team for spending your time, energy, and your own resources to prepare and donate more than 150 bagged lunches for the guests at Grassroots Crisis Intervention Center.

Food insecurity is a daily reality for far too many individuals and families in our community. While many of us are enjoying summer activities, countless neighbors are wondering where their next meal will come from. Every lunch packed is more than just a meal, it's a reminder that someone cares.

To every Croc swimmer, coach, volunteer, and family member who made this possible, thank you for making a real difference. Your kindness and generosity will have an immediate impact, and we are so grateful for your support.

We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to Junior Board Member Caroline Taylor, as she bags her last her final lunches, a bitter sweet moment for all of us!

BIG congratulations to Caroline on her high school graduation! While we will greatly miss her presence on the board, we are excited to see what lies ahead as she begins the Nursing Program at San Diego State University.

Since joining our board in 2023, Caroline has been an invaluable part of our mission, doing an outstanding job leading our lunch line and helping ensure that those we serve receive meals with care and compassion.

Caroline has consistently demonstrated kindness, dedication, and a genuine heart for service. We are confident she will soar in her studies and future career, carrying the same care and compassion that she has shared through her efforts with PWNP.

Thank you, Caroline, for all you have done for our organization and the community. We are incredibly proud of you and can't wait to see all that you accomplish.

At People Who Need People, we believe every child deserves the chance to laugh, play, and simply enjoy being a kid.

Thanks to the incredible generosity of our supporters, we were able to purchase “Summer Fun” outdoor play toys for the children residing at Sarah’s Hope Shelter in Baltimore. From outdoor games to activities that encourage movement, imagination, and joy, these donations are helping create smiles and special summer memories for children facing difficult circumstances.

Your kindness continues to remind these families that their community cares deeply about them. Thank you for helping us bring moments of happiness, hope, and childhood fun to the children at Sarah’s Hope Shelter.

We truly could not do this without you.
