Did you know that many of the families we serve spend more than half of their income on housing?

That does not leave much for groceries or personal care items.

At North Kent Connect, we make sure families always have choices, and right now your donations help make that possible.

Here is what is needed most today. Every item makes a difference right here in our community.

Thanks to the amazing middle school students from River Rock Church Youth Group who spent their half-day off from school serving at North Kent Connect! 💚

Instead of heading home early, these students chose to give back to their community by helping w**d around our campus and keeping our grounds looking beautiful and welcoming for everyone who visits.

Your willingness to show up, work hard, and serve others is a wonderful reminder that kindness has no age limit. Small acts of service make a big difference, and your efforts help create a place where neighbors feel cared for and connected.

Thank you, River Rock Church Youth Group, for investing your time and energy into our community. We are grateful for your helping hands and generous hearts! 🌱✨

Access to fresh food should not depend on where you live or what is in your wallet.

This season, North Kent Connect is giving out free seedlings to help local families grow healthy food right at home.

A few plants today can mean fresh meals for months to come. Come see us. 🌱

Client and community resources for June. Please call us at (616) 866-3478 if you have questions.
