Emergency Fund Ad Break:

Interfaith Community Services is here for people in their time of need, and now more than ever, our services are critical. Governor Newsom’s state-wide “stay at home” order identified Interfaith as an essential service; our services, staff, and volunteers are indispensable at a time like this.

We need your help now more than ever. With personnel and resources stretched thin, we need donations and volunteers to continue our important work. Help Interfaith continue to lift up our neighbors in need and address the unique health challenges COVID-19 creates for the poorest of our community.

For a limited time, our friends at The David T. & Dorris E. Staples Foundation will match all donations up to $40,000. This doubles the impact of your contribution. Please note “Staples Match” on your contribution. To donate visit interfaithservices.org/donate and select “Emergency Fund” in the drop-down menu.

We will remain committed to supporting the most vulnerable among us during these times and are doing everything to be sure we can. Thank you for the outpouring of support, ensuring our doors remain open to those most in need.

Eren’s Transformative Thought:

Interfaith’s Work is Valuable: The “Helping People Help Themsleves” model works. So, if you are thinking of becoming a donor or volunteer, you should know that you are in good hands.

Abigail’s Transformative Thought:

It’s Never Too Late to Help: Interfaith is ready and willing to support the community.

Bring donations to 550 W. Washington Ave. Escondido, CA. Monday-Friday 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
