Together We
Build a Peaceful Community Juntos, Construimos una
Comunidad de Paz
Vision
A peaceful community in
which tolerance, mutual respect and cooperation allow people of diverse racial
and economic backgrounds to live together as neighbors.
Mission
The mission--to assist
individuals, families and groups in their struggle to survive economic, social,
health and emotional crises and to support growth toward self-sufficiency
Core Goals
To integrate social, health,
youth and group programs to provide holistic services. To support neighbors
through home visits. To break down barriers created by poverty, isolation, fear
and prejudice. To recognize and promote the dignity of each person in the
community. To be hopeful and witness God's love for all people.
Midtown is an unique place—
»
where everyone is welcome
and everyone belongs » where services and support come together »
where families and
children come first » where the community gathers for sharing, work, to pray
& play.
MOVE CITY
GREENS
WE NEED YOU SUPPORT! City Greens Market has received a
$30,000 "matching' grant from the Brown Sisters Foundation to be able to Move
City Greens into its own space in the community. To receive full benefit of
this grant we need to raise matching funds. PLEASE HELP US serve our
neighbors by making healthy food accessible. GIVE WHAT YOU CAN to
provide food in "food deserts" where no healthy food is available. Our own
space will help us reach more of the community by being open more often and for
longer hours.
For a donation of $150 you will be listed as a "Green
Shopper" $250 your listing will be as a "City Greener" $500 or more
will make you an official "Green Grocer"
But, any donation will be
matched by the Brown Sisters Foundation grant. We hope to be able to move in
late spring. We count on our friends and supporters to make Midtown's mission
of service a success and City Greens Market is another way you can help
us- WE CANNOT DO IT BY OURSELVES!
