About Care In the Name of Christ (aka Care INC)
Care In the Name of Christ is a Christ-honoring, 501(c)(3) non-profit collaborative effort of individuals, churches, and service agencies from throughout the Fond du Lac area.
Do not withhold good from those who need it, when you have the ability to help.
Proverbs 3:27
Our mission: to bridge the gap for people facing emergency and difficult life situations, while demonstrating God’s love, grace, and plan for salvation.
Core Values
- Empower and assist people in meeting their own needs
- Utilize the gifts and talents of the Fond du Lac Community (individuals, agencies and churches) in assisting those in need.
- Deepen our skills and abilities to serve those in need
- Invite people to a closer walk with God
- Be witness to God’s love as Christian communities working together
What do we do?
Care INC offers two primary services to the community:
Resource Connections:
– we direct clients to local resources that can help meet their needs
Resource Discovery:
– we seek local resources that can help meet needs that cannot be met by other local resources
Care INC also provides support to partner churches
- By connecting the skills and resources of the people in our congregations with needs in the community
- By working to boost the effectiveness and efficiency of our community outreach by avoiding duplication and competition among resource providers
- By working to identify and address needs that are unmet by current ministries and agencies, and working collaboratively to meet them, to the extent we can.
- By providing methods for churches and agencies to share information on the ways we are assisting in the community.
Who is Care INC?
Care INC is supported by many volunteers; from our referral help network, to our church representatives as well as those from local agencies.
