Risk eviction or buy food? Keep the heat and lights on or get medical care? These are the difficult choices made every day by those struggling within our community. Tri-Lakes Cares empowers people to reach toward a better tomorrow. We’re committed to positively impacting lives and providing a hand-up, as well as a source of hope and compassion for our neighbors in need. It takes a community to support a community- will you be part of ours?
Each day families and individuals face financial difficulties through no fault of their own – rising cost of living, loss of a job or unexpected medical bills. We provide the essential safety-net while they regain their sense of self worth and rebuild their lives. We are dedicated to easing the tough decisions they face, whether it’s affording rent, securing nourishing meals, or obtaining essential medications.
Our current goals are centered around the findings of our 2024 community needs assessment. Meeting needs in the season ahead will require expanding or redefining services, partnering with other entities, and exploring geographic options all toward helping families build stable and fulfilling lives.
Recently, 63.2% of our clients reported that TLC provides enough food to meet their family’s needs, so their limited financial resources can be redirected to other household expenses.
“It’s never easy to ask for help when we are feeling down or depressed, but encountering an organization like TLC that cares, it means the world and gives not only relief but hope.” — M.R. & E.R, recipient of services
