# Neighbors in Need

###### A compassion mission of Anderson SDA Church to feed and clothe the homeless in Anderson, Indiana

A little about us...

## What is Neighbors in Need?

We are a quickly growing compassion ministry of Anderson SDA Church that seeks to provide meals and basic needs for the large homeless population of Anderson, Indiana.  What started out as a small group making 20 sack lunches every Saturday has exploded into an army of over 50 volunteers! From 3 years old to 80 years young, our church family, friends, community members, and even homeless friends are feeding our homeless neighbors. 

We are excited about the fast growth of our efforts, but we also know that our resources can only accomplish so much.  That is why we would love for you to partner with us so that we can extend our influence to an even greater population of homeless individuals.

 

###### The homeless and underprivileged of Anderson need your help
