Programs
At Worth Pursuing Inc., we are committed to investing in and raising awareness about the hunger relief, mental health, and well-being needs of the local community. Our initiatives are built on our pillars of faith, alignment, community, authenticity, and communication.
Here are some of the ways we are making a difference:
Hunger Relief
We believe that no one should go hungry, and that's why we organize several events throughout the year, including our monthly feeding program, pop-up community feeding & jobs events. These events provide food to those in need, and also offer valuable resources such as job opportunities, health screenings, and more.
Through the Nourish & Neighbor program, we provide monthly hot meals—totaling 815 annually—and delivers groceries to 100 families who lack transportation, ensuring access to nutritious food and restoring dignity for those facing hunger in our community.
Community Education
We believe that education is key to creating lasting change. That's why we organize quarterly community health fairs and bi-annual family education workshops, which cover topics such as financial literacy, job readiness, and mental health.
Annual “New Year, Healthy You” Health Fair is a free community wellness event designed to provide essential health screenings, resources, and education to support healthier living. With a special focus on women’s health and care for uninsured and unhoused neighbors, the fair will offer services like blood pressure checks, blood sugar and cholesterol readings, eye pressure checks, basic vision screenings, and mobile mammograms. This event is an opportunity for individuals and families to access vital healthcare support and start the year with a focus on well-being.
Access To Mental Health Resources
Mental health is just as important as physical health, and that's why we are dedicated to increasing access to mental health resources in our community. We provide information and resources to individuals who need help, and we partner with local mental health providers to ensure that those in need can get the care they deserve.
We host monthly free Youth Mental Health First Aid trainings to equip adults with the skills necessary to support adolescents aged 12-18 facing mental health or addiction challenges.
We are proud of the work we do at Worth Pursuing Inc., and we are committed to making a positive impact on the lives of those in need. If you are passionate about making a difference in your community, we invite you to join us today and be a part of something truly worth pursuing.
