New Pathways (Emergency Shelter)

New Pathways partners with area churches in central Minnesota so families with children have a safe place to stay at night. During the day, the families go to work, school, or to the New Pathways family day centers where they work on their plan to get back into a home of their own.

Every Meal (formerly The Sheridan Story) - Our school is excited to partner with The Sheridan Story to offer their free weekend food program to all students. The Sheridan Story is a nonprofit organization which strives to make a difference in children’s lives by focusing on food gaps like weekends, summers, and extended school breaks. Each Friday, your student will receive a 4-5 pound bag of nutritious, non-perishable food items. We hope this is a helpful resource for your family to enjoy! To sign up, complete the following FORM (link).   Find out more about Every Meal HERE.

Family Pathways (Food/Clothing)

Family Pathways works with communities to develop supportive, caring relationships to help people meet their basic needs.  This is done by offering a safety-net of essential services.  Together with volunteers, donors and the community at large, we give our neighbors the hope and stability they need.
