You saw an opportunity to connect with those in need downtown by using the one thing that most of us take for granted, food. Every week, you offer a hot meal to those in need in the downtown area. In addition to offering a meal, you do your best to connect people with additional resources such as housing, dentistry, medical and even clothing.

Serving with Outreached Arms means I get to work alongside people who are kind and hardworking. All skill levels are welcome because there’s something for everyone, and you can serve by simply listening and showing compassion from the heart to people deserving of attention. It’s often said you get more out of volunteering personally than you put in. I’ve found that to be profoundly accurate for my time volunteering with Outreached Arms. What a blessing!

When I serve with Outreached Arms it lets me see that there are problems in the world. Serving in Pittsburgh helps people in need. When we give people their food you can tell that they are truly thankful for what we do. Sharon is one of the nicest people I have met and I love serving with Outreached Arms.
