Serve Moses Lake Clearinghouse
We are an advocacy service to provide agency referrals, prayer support and encouragement. Currently we only provide services to Moses Lake residents. Our connection center receives requests from potential clients for a variety of needs. All our funds are provided by local churches and other community donors, not our office. In most cases a referral is recommended, and clients must follow our connection center process.
- we receive the initial request
- staff team review and verify information
- team resources a request appropriately
- staff volunteers connect to follow-up
