Our organization will help local, hard-working families and retirees when times get tough. The intent is to provide a "hand up", not a hand out. Every family encounters struggles where they fall short of being able to make ends meet. This is not a permanent status, just a tough time that will pass, but until then, CC5 is here to help.Â
This organization is intended to address the needs of the families that cannot receive help anywhere else; the hard-working families that make too much money to receive public assistance and often have nowhere else to go when they come up short.
CC5 intends to show that it is possible for everyone to help others. You do not have to have a lot of financial means to care. $5 may seem small all by itself, but if 10 people each give $5, that becomes $50 and that is enough to provide a meal for a family to celebrate a holiday that they may not have been able to provide for themselves. This shows the power of a community coming together. When everybody cares a little, it can make a big difference.
