HFH builds homes for families all over the world. Whether it is economic struggles, natural disasters, war or civil unrest, HFH provides shelter and housing solutions to help families recover. The local chapter helps relieve housing burdens to central Ohio families. It requires over 2,500 volunteer hours to build a house.
CROP Walk
CROP Walk is an interfaith, community event involving thousands of people who raise funds for local and global hunger programs. Organizers have a goal to raise $100,000 to help hungry people, both in Franklin County and in countries around the world. Mid-Ohio Food Bank receives a portion of the funds raised by CROP Walk. Northwest Christian Church is a leading congregation in supporting this event in Columbus.
Riverview International Center
At the Riverview International Center, it is our desire to assist with the basic needs of New Americans in the Riverview Drive neighborhood. Our office is a place where people can walk in and get help with any question they may have about navigating life in America. If we cannot provide the help ourselves, we will work hard to find someone that can. The goal is to be a flexible and community-oriented resource for whoever comes through our door.
YMCA Family Center
The YMCA Family Center provides emergency shelter and critical services to stabilize homeless families in central Ohio. Their goal is to help families find housing within 3 weeks of entering the program.
