Our Mission
"We exist to go out and serve our homeless community with unconditional love and acceptance by providing Hope in Christ, Meeting Daily Needs and Aligning Resources to those who are ready to move into a life beyond homelessness."
How it started.....
In September of 2012, a small group of willing volunteers started traveling to downtown Indianapolis on Sunday afternoons after learning about the homeless camps that existed within the city and the tremendous needs of the people that lived within them. Guided by faith, the group had initially set out to meet the immediate needs of the homeless population, but found very quickly that the individuals within these camps were looking for more than a hot meal. The group's consistent presence and approach of unconditional love and acceptance quickly broke down the social barriers that existed, which allowed the opportunity for trusting and lasting relationships to be created. It has been within these relationships that the true needs of those we serve have been discovered, which in turn has guided the mission and focus for Food 4 Souls.
