Streets of Paradise Inc.

04/23/2026

Every week, Streets of Paradise volunteers deliver about 150 meals to our most at-risk neighbors on the streets.

This could be the first meal someone has eaten in days. This could be the best thing that happens to them that week. One good meal, hygiene kit, connection with a volunteer, can make all the difference for someone.

We need your help to make this happen. Streets of Paradise is an almost entirely volunteer organization. Bring any food item or dish to share to the Love Act Repeat Hub on Sunday mornings around 10:30 am, or bring just yourself and help distribute. You can drop off the meal or stay for the magic of foodshare. Whatever you’re able to give, we welcome.
A little bit from all of us is stronger than a lot from a few. We can work together to make a difference for those who have the least.
This Sunday 4/26, stay for a volunteer meet and greet at noon. Learn about what we do and how you can be a part of it. You matter.

A day late.

It feels right.

Like the day after the storm
when everything is quiet and a little rearranged
and you can finally see what’s left

Like the day after the fire
when a home is gone
and still, somehow, something small begins again

Maybe we’re all a day late
to remembering what actually matters
to returning to community
to grace

Because this is where we actually live
not before the storm
not after it’s all tied up and healed

but right here
in the rebuilding
while it still hurts
while hands are still shaking

Earth Day isn’t the post
it’s the practice

Love your earth
because loving each other requires it

Not in a big, loud way
just in the ways we already know how

Share it
Use it
Pass it on

Grow a little more than you need
feed someone else too

Take what would have been thrown away
and let it belong again

This is the work
the rebuilding
of homes
of lives
of what was almost lost

We’ve been practicing it
on Sundays
in homes
in the quiet ways that don’t make headlines

If you’ve been wondering where you fit in
this is your invitation

Sunday
10:30 come witness FoodShare
stay for a Volunteer Meet + Greet at noon

Bring a dish to share with our street family
or don’t

Just come

Love
Act
Repeat

Playback Theatre’s Spring performance was a beautiful, moving night of art and connection. We were grateful to host these talented artists’ improvisational theatre, dance, music and storytelling performance in collaboration with for our shared community, who were invited to share their own stories of grief, grace, humor, and recovery.

How we care for our community is so much more than the tangible resources, although those are essential. It’s about love, listening, healing, and belonging. Thank you for being a part of this.

We are so excited for our next improvisational event with , coming soon.
