The Mission of Winter Haven - GiveWell Community Foundation

The Mission of Winter Haven exists to provide an immediate response of food, support services and a day center for homeless individuals and all in need; by way of Faith, Community and Helps. We do this by producing a continued cycle of serving. We are here to meet needs, inspire change, mend brokenness, enrich and educate lives, work with our community and most of all… Share Love. Our vision is to see lives restored and changed; growing academically, spiritually, physically, economically, emotionally, and socially; to become contributing members of the community. We provide homeless services, a food pantry, community feedings, showers, clothing, hygiene, enrichment classes, training, counseling, prayer and other support services.
