We picked up Christmas assistance for a Great Grandmother who is raising her three Great Grandchildren. We were brought to tears by the love and generosity that was expressed…it was indeed a very Merry Christmas for this family.
South Lake Cares works to show our local community that we care deeply and love fully. Whether it’s feeding children or senior adults, counseling, community renovation projects, or providing resources to love on your own neighborhood, our desire is to come along side people and help them know that they are not alone.

ACTS OF KINDNESS
South Lake Cares currently offers three different programs in our local community.
We provide a range disaster relief services in partnership with various National, State and Local agencies, including the Lake County Emergency Operations Center.
We work in partnership with local schools providing weekly food support for kids in crisis and at-home delivery to local homebound senior adults.
We offer a range of mental and emotional health services to help people move toward a brighter future.
Careful planning is evident in the well balanced variety of foods specifically tailored to the size of each family and the ages of the children.
Your support is greatly appreciated and enables us to better serve the youth of our community…
You help the students prosper by giving them food. You fuel their minds along with them not having to worry about the supplies they need.
There is no doubt that receiving help from Buses n’ Backpacks not only gave my student and her family daily sustenance, but strengthened her mom’s faith and helped sustain her spiritually in a time of great crisis.
You’d think it was Christmas. My grandson loves the potatoes and the veggies in a can!
It was absolutely apparent that these folks were doing everything they could to get by.
We count our success by stories? Take a look at some good news.
Any question is a good question.
