Grace Klein Community (GKC) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to fostering community, addressing food insecurity, and promoting sustainability. We work collaboratively with local and global partners to serve those in need, building relationships to create lasting impact.
Our most important function is as a ministry. People come first. No matter the task at hand, we do everything in our power to make a place for everyone. We stop and listen, we pray, and we encourage gifts, skills, and purpose. We foster relationships with people where they are, whether in abundance or crisis. Our vision comes down to the basics of the early church: “We all have a need; we all have something to give. If we all share what we have, we all have what we need.”
