Our Backyard Mission program helps families in, the Pine Hills community, in crisis by providing up to $150 in utility assistance (when funding is available) and offering basic toiletries for households of the elderly, disabled, and underserved struggling to meet daily needs. By partnering with local property managers and residents in the Pine Hills neighborhood and surrounding towns in Orange County.
Every story matters. During each in-person interview, our caseworkers listen with compassion, guiding applicants through the Backyard Missions process to ensure families get the utility assistance support they need to move forward with dignity and hope.
Backyard Missions is our hands on community impact arm, focused on meeting families where they are and responding to real needs with dignity, compassion, and purpose. Through seasonal outreach and resource-driven events, we bring neighbors together, uplift families, and create opportunities for stability and support.
