Community Support Calendar

The Blessing Project is bringing essential resources directly into the community. Our calendar shows upcoming outreach stops, Blessing Bus routes, food distributions, Community Clean-Ups and other opportunities to receive support.
Check back regularly—locations, times and available resources may change.
