MISIÓN, VISIÓN E HISTORIA .
Nuestra misión
Como expresión del amor de Dios y demostración del evangelio de Jesucristo, Western Fairfax Christian Ministries proporciona alimentos y apoyo financiero a quienes corren el riesgo de pasar hambre y quedar sin hogar.
Nuestra visión
Visualizamos una comunidad donde todos estén alojados y alimentados y experimenten el amor de Dios.
Nuestra historia
Western Fairfax Christian Ministries (WFCM), la organización comunitaria fundamental en la Región 4 del condado de Fairfax, proporciona alimentos y apoyo financiero a familias en riesgo de hambre y falta de vivienda en 8 códigos postales en el oeste del condado de Fairfax (Centerville, Chantilly, Clifton, Fairfax , Fairfax Station y Oak Hill).
En 1987, voluntarios de 12 iglesias vieron la necesidad de una ayuda coordinada y formaron WFCM. Más de 30 años después, nuestros programas principales son nuestro Programa de Servicios Financieros de Emergencia y Despensa de Alimentos de Elección del Cliente (que ayuda con el alquiler, la hipoteca y las facturas de servicios públicos) que atiende a un promedio de 500 familias / mes, más de 3.000 personas / año.
