How You Can Help

  • One of the ways you can make meaningful impact in the lives of the homeless families we serve in the Hickman Mills C-1 School District is by making tax-deductible donations of food, furniture, clothing, or hygiene items. New apartment kits are given to families we are able to transition into permanent housing, so they can start off with everything they need to provide a safe home to their children.

    To make a donation, contact:
    L.I.F.T., Inc. at Blue Hills Church
