170+ HOUSEHOLDS
When individuals face health-related needs that may impact their independence - whether due to age or physical disability - we have an incredible opportunity to shine light into their situation. With over 10 years of ministry under our belt, we have found that the best way to do this is through the following:
ASSESS
We assess fall risk, home repair needs, personal resources, and social network supports
​
PLAN
We determine the resources needed, along with cost estimates, to support the best quality of life possible.
EQUIP
We mobilize local community members, group, and business to meet those needs.
VISION
THE VISION OF KIND AT HEART IS TO RAISE AWARENESS AND INCREASE INVOLVEMENT OF THE COMMUNITY, BRINGING HONOR, DIGNITY, AND CARE TO THE AGING.

In-Kind Support
This work is not our own! As the number of aging people in America continues to increase, we must all rise to the occasion! That is why we continue to work hard to be a catalyst and avenue through which local churches, businesses, and individuals can serve their neighbors in tangible and meaningful ways . . . and it shows. Volunteers have poured in over 5000 hours annually; and $51,000 worth of in-kind materials & services in past years. Together, with arms linked, we can continue to meet increasing needs with the type of love that never runs out.
