“Acts 4 Ministry,” explained executive director Sarah Elizabeth Carabetta, “is dedicated to creatively building relationships with people while providing them the basics of daily living. Our team members focus on this goal whether it is through collecting personal care items and gently used blankets or strategizing our next fundraiser. Our mission is to provide individuals or families who have experienced life devastating events a calming environment to select clothing, housewares, personal care, and other basic need items at no charge plus furniture with a small delivery fee.
We partner with churches, social service agencies, private and public schools to help identify and serve people with these needs regardless of their faith, race, creed, or national origin, or their willingness to participate in religious activities.
Year-round we look towards steady service growth and our ability to meet this goal is dependent in part on a strong, community-minded board of directors consisting of dedicated individuals. Ms. Hunt is a leader in her field of expertise while driving a community focus to all of her ambitions. As we grow we need to maintain our board of directors with prominent individuals from different professions throughout the region.”
