Faith In Action
Mission Statement

What Do We Do?
Faith In Action recruits volunteers to assist senior citizens with a range of support services designed to help seniors remain living independently in their own homes.

Who Do We Serve?
Our program serves adults living independently in Ashland County who are 60 years of age or older, regardless of race, religious belief, or economic status. Faith In Action fills the gap for elderly people who could remain in their homes with just a little help.

Who Volunteers?
Faith In Action volunteers are generous, caring people who want to give of their time and talents in assisting the elderly. They are men, women, and young people from all walks of life. Groups interested in community service find opportunities through Faith In Action.
