Faith Hope and Change is a non-profit organization that was started in April 2019 by Theresa Caldera and Senovia Medina. The two met when Caldera was volunteering through another non-profit organization in San Bernardino that fed the homeless.
Caldera was born and raised in Colton, CA and continues to reside in this beautiful city along with her two sons. Caldera says, "I always had compassion and a big heart in helping others in need. Growing up I have seen a great increase in homelessness and poverty, so I decided to see what I could do to make a difference," when she spoke about her non-profits.
Currently, they feed the homeless in Riverside and Colton. Caldera also provides them with clothing and hygiene products. However, she states, "this is not enough to change the homeless situation, so we have future plans to start addressing key issues that prevent these individuals from reintegrating back into society." Currently, they do not have any outside funding or monetary assistance other than fundraising, and donations, but they have been blessed with family and friends volunteering their time to help their endeavors.
They also donate overstock food that is received from local food banks to our local community in Colton every Sunday at 363 West L St. Colton, Ca 92324 from 9:00-2:00 or till the food is gone. If any readers are interested in volunteering or want to assist by donating you can contact them at faithhopeandchange@yahoo.com or by donating at Paypal/faithhopeandchange.
