Our Mission

Roots with Purpose began in 2021 with the simple act of a hot meal. This one meal has turned into getting to know our unsheltered neighbors in a way that we never imagined.

Our Mission is to continue to connect with those who are experiencing homelessness. We strive in going out into the community to meet our neighbors face to face and offer them a kind and warm smile (and a hug if they are up for it!).

We currently are working on programs to help provide a larger impact. “Meals with Purpose” and Compassion Packs are two of our programs that are currently being shared with our neighbors.

Roots with Purpose is a 100% volunteer run non-profit! We are genuine folks who work hard to make sure those we serve feel valued. We take our time to build their trust and create an understanding that even if we cannot solve their situation immediately, that we are working to help connect them with resources when they are ready to move to the next step!

Our Vision

Our Vision at Roots with Purpose includes a long-term goal of creating community-centered spaces to change the reality of our unsheltered community in our area.

These spaces would allow us to help our neighbors in a greater capacity. Our vision includes opening a tiny-home community with the ability to have all needed resources on site.

This vision entails procuring land and a tiny home builder who can feel our passion for helping others. Having a place where we can effectively help our neighbors get off the street and into a safe and secure environment is the key to their success.

This vision also includes helping them create a new plan for their future and continuing to support them throughout this process.
