Grace Network of Martinsville and Henry County
Short Term Support for Long Term Solutions

Grace Network has three programs currently, and we will soon add one more.

The first program is financial assistance for essential life needs in a crisis. We help clients pay bills for housing, utilities, and some related items.

Our second program is our client-choice food pantry. The pantry can provide two week's worth of food to a family. The client "shops" for their food much as they do in a grocery store so that they only take the items their family will use.

The third program at Grace Network is our involvement with the United Way's HOPE Initiative in helping people to prepare their income taxes. We believe that when we help with tax preparation, we help clients claim all the credits to which they are entitled, and we can file the taxes electronically so that they receive refunds more quickly. This can help a client get back on their feet.

We will soon begin a fourth program, a financial education and responsibility program which has been funded by Truliant Credit Union.
