Support from the Mears Foundation has been helped Harper Memorial Church’s monthly community meals going. These meals have grown to be an important hub for locals. The weekly participation of 40 to 50 people means that the lunches offer both nutrition and a sense of community. Food was provided thanks to financing from the Foundation. This project has also promoted extracurricular activities like weekly football sessions, which improve social integration and general well-being for both newcomers and long-term residents.
