….Helping individuals and families overcome and avoid emergency crisis -since 1994.
The mission of the Christian Clearing House (CCH) is to provide emergency assistance for our neighbors facing financial, emotional, or spiritual needs in Hancock County.
Empowering One Family at a Time
Donations to Christian Clearing House (CCH) are used to provide emergency assistance for our neighbors facing financial, emotional, or spiritual needs in Hancock County. Approximately 1,200 local lives are touched each month by our organization and your charitable donations and several fundraising events.
The following examples are how CCH is helping our community.
• Rent- 500 families annually are provided assistance to keep them from eviction
• Utilities – 1125 families annually are helped to keep their utilities connected
• Medical/RX – 100 people annually are helped with medications
• Transportation – 1700 families annually are helped in various ways
• Groceries – 1700 families annually are provided a food voucher
• Referrals – Other organizations may offer more or alternative assistance
CCH is an association of area churches that pool their resources to provide this assistance. Donations can be made through area churches or directly to CCH. Christian Clearing House is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization.
I never knew there was this much need in Hancock County……..
My eyes were truly opened when I stopped at the Family Center to see how I could get more involved in the community. I stopped at the CCH office — I had heard of how they helped families in need, my church was a participating congregation, but “What did they really do?” The kind staff and volunteers talked to me about the services they provided daily for residents of Hancock County. I have been a resident of Hancock County all my life. I had no idea, until that day, of the unmet needs that existed here in my hometown. The work that CCH does is truly remarkable – deciding to donate monthly was an easy decision. They explained their utility help programs as well as their Halt Hunger, Stuff the Bus, Project Happy Feet, and their huge Annual Garage Sale. Once I retire, I hope to volunteer with this organization, as they are an asset to the community.
