Gethsemane has committed to preparing dinner the first Monday of every month for the TCAA I-HELP program. Every night of the year TCAA’s I-HELP shelter program offers home-cooked meals prepared and served by community volunteers, to the men and women sheltered by the program. Meal Providers are groups that plan, prepare, deliver, and serve the evening meal for up to 30 men and women. Meal providers are also welcomed to sit and enjoy the evening meal along with program staff and participants; this exchange of home-cooked meals and social interaction is critical to the healing process for men and women who have been homeless and are now working towards a personal plan for self-sufficiency.

Since 1966 Tempe Community Action Agency (TCAA) has dedicated its resources to strengthening families and neighborhoods through initiatives that address the causes and effects of poverty. Their mission is to foster dignity and self-reliance in the economically vulnerable within the communities we serve. This mission is accomplished through the delivery of programs that seek to intervene in homelessness and stabilize housing, promote health upbringings for infants and toddlers, address food insecurity, promote aging in place, and further an individual or family’s economic status.
