Faith in Action for Monroe County will work to find a helping hand for resident of Monroe County or anyone who is part of a Monroe County congregation regardless of religious preference. Priority is given to those with the greatest needs, although all elderly and disabled adults 60+ who need assistance to remain at home are eligible for services. All services are offered without charge. Donations received are used to help us reach out to more people in need.
 



  • Someone with an extra hour can drive a neighbor to the doctor.
  • A busy mother could pick up a few extra groceries for a widow while she is shopping for her own family.
  • A youth group can get together on a weekend to clean up an elderly couple’s yard.
  • A handy person out for the day could take a few minutes to change a neighbor’s light bulb or install a smoke alarm.
  • A teen can stop in after school and read a newspaper or mail to someone who has lost their sight.
  • Even a person who is a shut-in themselves could make a weekly phone call to support another shut-in.
