"Folks come in for assistance and they are screened and interviewed," president of Churches United of Caring Skip Greenwade said. "We do our best to determine what their needs are, and most importantly, what we can do to meet those needs."
For those who qualify, they can receive financial assistance for most personal needs including housing and medical bills.
The majority of the non-profit's funding is received through donations and thrift store sales.
"We've had first-edition books come through here, and some of our volunteers were not trained to recognize everything," Greenwade said. "We have a lot of people that come in here looking for bargains and gifts."
