MORE THAN A BUS

Driven To Serve

MISSION STATEMENT

"To impact the needs of the hurting by bringing hope into cities where hunger and homelessness exists"

 

 

ABOUT

More Than a Bus is a non-profit 501c3 organization that will serve the physical, emotional and spiritual needs of the homeless, poor, underserved, oppressed and mentally unstable persons (collectively the “hurting”) in communities throughout Macomb, Oakland and Wayne Counties where homelessness and hunger exist.  More Than a Bus will consistently provide food, personal hygiene items and articles of clothing to the hurting in those communities by traveling to the same location weekly. This will be done primarily through the work of volunteers and funded through voluntary contributions from the general public and those persons interested in the goals and mission of More Than a Bus.

THE PLAN

The mission shall be carried out through the following means:

I.M.P.A.C.T

Immediate:  To provide for immediate needs of the homeless and impoverished

Mobilize:  To travel into areas of poverty and homelessness serving individuals and families

Partner:  To collaborate with community partners in order to help people become self-sustaining through spiritual support, life skills, employment skills and peer mentoring

Authentic Relationships:  To put God’s love into action by valuing each person, yet holding them accountable and walking with them in their struggles

Consistency:  To be a ministry that can be counted on by traveling to the same location weekly
