Faith Formula Human Services

Welcome to Faith Formula

Thank you Friendship-West!!!

Friendship-West, we did it!!! During the month of October, we did just what we said: provided food boxes and bags for 500 families. And On A Mission kept up the great work distributing meals to over 200 VIPs. The total number of individuals served in October: 1,990. Your generosity and willingness to bless others made this possible. Thank you for assisting us in providing Life Support in such an amazing way.

As we continue to create the beloved community, we recognize that Thanksgiving is right around the corner and so many are still lacking financial resources due to the displacements caused by the COVID-19 virus. With that said, we will be providing Thanksgiving meal boxes to 2000 families. There’s two ways you can help: Donate or volunteer. $2.50 will help us create meal boxes for the 2000 families we plan to serve. Simply go to faithformula.org and scroll down to the Thanksgiving volunteering link or the donate button. We are able to bless so many families because of your partnership and your love for others. So join us as we keep on keeping on showing how amazing Christ continues to be.

Build, Heal, Restore
Three principles that Faith Formula Human Services stand on.

Building relationships with our partners, clients, and volunteers. Healing our communities. Restoring physical and spiritual essentials by providing a hand up to those in need. In times of crisis, we respond by assessing the situation, determining the best route to assist the most people, and galvanizing our volunteers and partners to provide quality service, love and support, and positivity even in tough times.

As we continue to fight this COVID-19 battle, we are doing our best to ensure the safety of our communities and to offer goods, services, and resources to ensure that we not only stand together, but we rise together. Since March 31st, Faith Formula, Friendship-West, and On A Mission have been able to assist 1500 families which equals more than 3300 individuals. On A Mission has served over 800 VIPs.

In order to do this, we need your help. Your contributions and prayers can help us continue to feed individuals and families, provide up to date information, and stand with our community as we work to support and shine God's light in the midst of dark times. $1 helps to provide three meals for a family of four. $10 provides a month’s supply for a family of four.

Thank you to each person who has given to and volunteered for this movement. It is because of you that we are able to serve others. We are blessed to be a blessing because of your generosity and support. And a special thanks to Sankofa Kitchen and Paul Quinn College for assisting with fresh produce.

As we move forward in our new normal, we are finding new and innovative ways to provide care and hope to our communities. At this time, we are not accepting physical donations of clothing, furniture, food, or supplies. If you would like to be a blessing to someone, make your donation today!
