Why are relationships the key to breaking the cycle of poverty? For nearly 40 years, Shepherd has dived deep into our neighborhood, walking hand-in-hand alongside our neighbors through authentic relationships, care, and resources that meet our neighbors’ physical, emotional, spiritual, and academic needs, leading to lasting hope. Most of all, Shepherd is a shining beacon of hope in a neighborhood consumed by poverty.

On Friday, November 1, Shepherd hosted the Virtual Gathering 2024, sharing real stories and our impact on our community for nearly 40 years. This one-hour event showed the power of authentic relationships and the power YOU have in helping our neighbors find lasting hope.

Best of all, hear how our neighbors have and are continuing to break the cycle of poverty!
