990 for the year ended December 31, 2023

Program accomplishments

  • Renewal Team: The Renewal Team iniative seeks to enlist as many individuals from the city who will commit to being a caring community. As it grows, community members begin to realize the good that is being done in the community. A whole new perception of our ciy and its potential will be seen. The team has begun working with individuals, faith groups, civic groups, businesses and others who desire to serve as leaders to build a safer, stronger and healthier community. This team is growing!
    Expenses $7,558 · revenue $46,236
  • Block Leader Initiative: We Care Palestine believes that friendships with our neighbors must be intentionally developed and nutured. The Block Leader initiative helps facilitate neighbors to become caring friends--respecting, talking and walking together. This is working!
    Expenses $4,548 · revenue $4,055
  • Friendship House Initiative: Because of poverty and lack of resources, some neighborhoods in our city need special help through the Friendship House iniative. Built in an area of special need, the Friendship House will serve as a center for community connection and for programs such as after-school enrichment for children/youth, life-skills training, family night gatherings and other activities which offer residents a better quality of life. The Community Coordinator and his/her family live in the Friendship House and become catalysts for rebuilding a safe, caring neighborhood where children are nutured and feel safe. Our goal is to build and staff two such houses.0
