The Interfaith organization was founded in 1975 to aid the hungry and destitute.

Twenty-five churches now belong to the service, which operates a distribution center providing food, lodging at motels, financial assistance with utility bills and rent payments, as well as shelter in the New Vista transitional living center.

The agency provided food to 33,000 people last year and helped numerous families find work and learn life skills to prosper, Interfaith officials said.
