our founders make it possible

““What did Jesus do? He loved people. He took care of people. He made sure people had food. He made sure people had their spiritual nourishment too. This is what I was really meant to do. And I have a lot of joy in doing that. And so, I just want that to be shared.””
— Olivia, Marketing Manager and Program Manager
