Kids’ Hope
Kid’s Hope is a program that partners adult mentors from Harlem with students from Sheldon Woods Elementary School. Mentors meet with their child once a week for an hour to develop an encouraging and caring relationship to show them the love of Jesus. If you’re interested, please contact Kid’s Hope director Angie Helder.
Food Distribution
On the fourth Monday evening of each month, Harlem provides a hot meal and groceries for anyone who comes to receive these gifts. Volunteers help cook and serve the meal and assist families going through the grocery line in the parking lot.
Registration begins at 4:30 pm
Distribution begins at 5:30 pm
We can always use more volunteers. If you would like to help, simply come between 3:30 and 5:30 on the fourth Monday and we will find a job for you.
Next Food Distributions: January 22, February 26, March 25
