Why We Love This Affiliate
We love that they are a faith-based federally qualified health center in NYC, treating patients with dignity, respect and compassion as compelled by their faith, living out the Jeremiah 29:7 mandate to live out their faith in their work so that they bring “shalom” to the communities they serve.
Mentions
In just one year, more than 130,000 migrants have arrived in New York City to seek asylum. Many have traveled for miles and for months from South America, specifically Venezuela, to the United States.
In 2021, a milestone year that celebrated 25 years of His Toy Store, we distributed $155,000 to 29 affiliate partners so they could bring holiday joy to 15,000 New Yorkers in need.
Despite the long and dark pandemic season, we saw sparks of hope, which are captured in these stories that our affiliates shared about the earliest pandemic days.
