Community Partnerships and Supporters

Life Center thrives to make everlasting relationships with those that find that their hearts are touched by our life changing programs!

Partnerships with many local businesses and numerous community organizations, continues to allow Life Center to carry out our mission to “Impact Lives for Eternity”! We believe in working together to shine a light in the lives of those surrounded by darkness.

Additional financial support is always needed and appreciated. “Hope” can easily begin for a struggling poverty stricken family with just one phone call! Find out how easy and inexpensive it is to feed your neighbors and provide so many lives with the “Hope” and the light they so desperately long for. You are welcome to stop in and take a tour to see first-hand how we continue to accomplish our mission and meet the needs of the less-fortunate of this community.

Partnering with many organizations and business’s allows us to actively work together to continue meeting the dramatic increased need.
