Mission

Who We Are: The LEC is a Christian not-for-profit organization practicing servant leadership as a model of personal and community transformation. Mission: Promoting Transformational Growth through a holistic approach

About

Food Services: The Life Enrichment Center (LEC) provided hot meals and groceries to its clients in 2018. In-kind donations from businesses, individuals, and church and Boy Scout drives significantly resourced these services. Additionally, food items were shared with other non-profit organizations feeding those in need in the community. The LEC operates a micro- business lunch cafe (4 days/week) and catering services to help fund the free community meals and to serve as a training opportunity for clients seeking reentry into the work force. LEC launched a Community Garden with 30 raised beds, teaching clients about gardening. Clients raised produce to take home and gave a portion back to be used in LEC programs.
