stories of impact
This is what happens when a community comes together
After losing my husband, I didn’t know where to turn. The ROSE TLC provided not just practical help, but a community that made me feel less alone.
The volunteers at ROSE TLC treated me with such dignity. They didn’t just fix things in my home, they restored my hope.
Finding affordable clothing for my growing children at the thrift store has been a blessing. Knowing it supports such a worthy cause makes it even better.
Volunteering with ROSE TLC has been the most rewarding experience. The relationships I’ve built with the widows I visit weekly have enriched my life immeasurably.
As a pastor, I’ve seen how ROSE TLC fills crucial gaps in serving our community’s most vulnerable. Their work is truly the hands and feet of Christ.
When we moved here, we knew no one. The community dinners hosted by ROSE TLC helped us make friends and find our place in this town.
