A Hand Up
Greater Greenwood United Ministry extends the hands of Jesus Christ to assist those in our community in life and medical crisis.

Providing Hope and Help in a Moment of Life Crisis
Greater Greenwood United Ministry addresses the needs of the “whole person”, offering assistance to keep individuals in their home with the lights on, and critical medical care that will improve quantity and quality of life.

Become A Church Partner
Join over 60 local churches in partnership with Greater Greenwood United Ministry. Working together makes a much larger impact on those in crisis in our community.
Together we can:
- Provide shelter and stability to a family facing eviction
- Provide light, warmth, and coolness to a family facing utility disconnection
- Provide steps to overcome chronic crisis and move to sustainability
- Provide a medical home for the uninsured

How You Can Personally Help
It certainly does take a village…….
Ecclesiastes 4:9 tells us, “Two are better than one, because they will have a good return for their labor”. Give of your gifts, talents, and resources, as you are able. Nothing you can share is too small, as it will be joined with others’ gifts, talents, and resources for good.
Consider the following ways to connect with us:
- Pray
- Donate
- Volunteer
- Provide non-perishables for the Emergency Food Pantry
- Provide a meal to feed volunteers of our Thursday evening clinic
