WHO WE ARE

​We are passionate about giving people a hand up in their time of need. The mission is to serve the community and help families stay in their homes, cars, and jobs. Our three serving teams are committed to rolling up their sleeves and getting their hands dirty by meeting needs in people's lives in personal and tangible ways.

Greater Impact was founded with a compassionate spirit to serve and uplift others. Even in our earliest stages, we were actively involved in aiding individuals in recovery, addressing car troubles, and resolving housing challenges, all driven by our intrinsic desire to make a difference. As we joined forces with our dedicated community partners, we recognized the immense potential to extend our impact to a wider audience. This realization led to the birth of Greater Impact, enabling us to reach and positively transform the lives of even more individuals in need.
