Soupfest

Living Rock supports under-served youth ages 13-25 who are at risk of falling through the cracks in our community. We address challenges such as poverty, mental illness, addiction, and disenfranchisement. With the help of our generous partners and supporters, we provide wrap-around supports to alleviate the effects of poverty and create opportunities for youth to thrive.Each year, Living Rock Ministries welcomes over 22,000 youth visits. We engage them through meal programs, a food bank, and safe recreational activities. We offer encouragement through prenatal and postnatal care, housing support, and crisis intervention. Finally, we equip them for a brighter future with pre-employment and employment programs. Together, we can make a meaningful impact!
