Who
We Are:
started as an outreach ministry
in 2005 providing services to homeless
women, children and families. The
services quickly grew from feeding
once a month to providing assistance
to women and youth who were looking
to change their current circumstances
by learning skills and training
that will help them establish a
greater foundation in their lives
through working and learning life
skills. Through PC-NFP outreach
more than 40,000 sack lunches, over
5,000 seasonal and hygiene supplies
have been distributed to those in
need. PC-NFP provides assistance
to seven low income shelters in
both Illinois and Missouri. On October
29, 2011 6 years after the founding
of this organization PC-NFP fulfilled
its short term goal and opened the
Compassionate Resource Center. This
facility was developed for disadvantage
young women, mothers and youth to
assist them with resources and training
such as:
*Parenting
Class
*Life Skills
*Job Readiness
*Financial Literacy
*Health and Wellness Training
*Spiritual Guidance
*Educational Support
*Mentoring
