Inspired by the story of an organization in Florida that provides weekend nutrition packages to elementary school children, we are focusing on Baltimore City and County elementary schools with a high percentage of students who qualify for FARM by discreetly providing them with packages full of a weekend's worth of food.
We strongly believe improved nutrition on the weekends enables "at-risk" children to be better prepared to participate in their education.

L.I.F.T. R&R
In 2015 they launched an outreach program to help people in need. People whose loved ones had died and they didn't know where to turn for grief services. They told them about griefshare. They had children and didn't know DFW offered a free 3 day grief camp to help their children. They told them about Camp Erin. Another woman's fiance had been critically injured in a car accident and had major brain damage and forgot who she was, she was devastated and had posted on Facebook how depressed and overwhelmed she was and asked for prayer. Their LIFT team wrote her a letter of encouragement, provided encouraging scriptures and their youth drew and colored her a picture and they sent it via messenger to her. Her response made them all cry and they then realized just how a small act of kindness, care, and compassion, truly made impacts and was very much needed. People in Mckinney were sleeping on the floor with no beds or furniture we provided them info for Bedstart who provided them free beds, free linen and free furniture.
LIFT R&R stands for laboring in the field together resources and referrals. Their hearts mission is to do their part to help make lives easier for those who are experiencing difficulty by providing resources and referrals. They partner with other non profit organizations, community partners and state and local agencies who are offering resources to help others. We provide these referral services FREE. They help non profit organizations with exposure via their Social Media platforms at no charge. They are here to LIFT up and support your efforts. They are aware that your heart wants to help others with no or low cost services but lack of finances to advertise make it difficult to get the word out so they do this for you for FREE.
People need everything from beds, diapers, food, grief counseling, shelter, training, spiritual resources, education and much much more. If you are trying to help them we are wanting to help you and let people know you're there.
We are helpers one to another. May God's hand be on this organization as we help others in this world with our mission of service.
Christian Appalachian Project
They have been committed to improving the lives of Appalachian children, families and seniors who are struggling to escape poverty since our founding more than 50 years ago.
CAP began with a young Catholic priest from northern Kentucky, Reverend Ralph W. Beiting. After being assigned to pastor a large portion of east-central Kentucky, he realized that – aside from the need for spiritual guidance – the people of Appalachia were in great need of physical support as well. With the help of family and friends, he was able to bring food, clothing and other necessities to area residents.
His efforts were achieving such great success that in 1964, the name and organization, Christian Appalachian Project came to be.
With the help of donors, volunteers, staff, and the communities it serves, CAP has grown to touch the lives of more than 1 million people each year.
Changing lives, teaching skills, improving the community – this is CAP.
