Partnering with Faith, Strengthening Our Community
Faith in Action: Neighbors Helping Neighbors
Since 1987, LEAVEN has partnered with local churches to strengthen their charitable impact and support people in crisis. Together, we help congregation members and the broader community access meaningful assistance, turning individual acts of giving into coordinated care that makes a lasting difference. For many churches, LEAVEN is a trusted lifeline to the community.
Local Churches, Local Impact
“As a church, we desire to compassionately respond to the great needs of those going through challenging seasons of life. We also know we need to practice good, responsible stewardship with the funds given to the church through tithes and offerings. At Valley Baptist Church, we have found that giving through LEAVEN is a great way to fulfill both of these objectives.”
– Larry Creamer, Senior Pastor, Valley Baptist Church, Appleton, WI
