Hurricane Relief

Hurricanes Helene and Milton

Hurricanes Helene and Milton have devastated our community, leaving many families displaced and in need of urgent support. Our founder, Dr. Shirley Davis, experienced this firsthand when her home was flooded, yet her commitment to helping others remains unwavering. Through Shirley’s Closet, we are providing clothing to those in need, and we’re assembling hygiene kits for men and women without essential personal care items. Our goal is to distribute 100 MECare Packages in St. Pete and Tampa Bay, but with your help, we can do even more. Donate today to bring hope and healing to our neighbors!

We just wanted to say thank you for being such a bright light and a constant reminder of what it looks like to take God at his word.

Thank you for encouraging me, pushing me, and allowing me to be vulnerable. I feel a shift in my life and I am learning to embrace it because of you. Excited for what 2024 has because I am taking MY seat at the table.
