East Side Soup Kitchen
We serve people from many walks of life: senior citizens on a fixed income, people with mental and physical disabilities that make it impossible for them to work, the working poor and homeless men, women and children. The people we serve come basically from the East Side of the City of Saginaw but are not limited to that population. In the fall of 2002, in collaboration with Hidden Harvest, a food-rescue agency, we partnered to raise funds and build a new handicap accessible facility staying within the neighborhood where there is the greatest need. The community and foundations were very supportive and we moved into our current location in October of 2005.
Emmaus House
The mission of Emmaus House is to provide a home for women, especially women coming from jail, prison, or rehab. Our purpose is to provide the women with a family-like, Christian atmosphere while they are creating new lives for themselves. We see a women's stay at Emmaus as temporary, lasting until they are able to be on their own. At Emmaus we believe that each person has the potential to become what God wants them to be, regardless of what they have done. We believe each person is good, a unique expression of God. Our hope is to provide an environment where each women can come to realize her own goodness, and hence, the goodness of God.

Hidden Harvest
HIDDEN HARVEST strives to alleviate hunger and end food waste in the Bay, Midland and Saginaw region by providing a safe and coordinated system of rescuing surplus food and redistributing it to feed people in need. HIDDEN HARVEST operates upon the simple premise that good food should not go to waste when so many people are in need in our community. Each day, HIDDEN HARVEST rescues thousands of pounds of food from hospitals, hotels, restaurants, wholesalers, bakeries, grocery stores, and other health department or USDA approved sources. This food is immediately delivered free of charge, to soup kitchens, food pantries, shelters, and other nonprofit community programs that help many of our neighbors every day.
Jr. Leadership Saginaw
The program was started, in 2000, by a group of leaders who had just completed the Leadership Saginaw Program sponsored by the Saginaw County Chamber of Commerce. The group had spent nearly a year together experiencing Arts, Culture, Diversity, History, Education and Law Enforcement in Saginaw County. The Class of 2000 met after its graduation from the adult program and asked each other how they could pay it forward, thus, the creation of the Jr. Leadership Saginaw Program.
PRIDE in Saginaw
PRIDE is an acronym that stand for "Positive Results In a Downtown Environment." It is an organization of volunteers formed to develop and promote Downtown Saginaw. It was started in 1975 through the joint efforts of the downtown business community, the Junior League and the City of Saginaw, to stop the exodus of business, the erosion of the tax base and deterioration in the Central Business District. The goals of PRIDE are to attract new business to the downtown, encourage and support the existing business and professional community, and to improve and beautify the downtown environment.

Saginaw Art Museum
C. L. Ring inherited the family's home at 1126 North Michigan Avenue, one of Saginaw's more fashionable neighborhoods. The house was an imposing Italianate-style home constructed in 1896. It featured broad porches and a three-story tower. The Rings lived in the home for about seven to eight years during which time they began planning for a new home to be erected on the site. About 1903 the Rings commissioned noted New York architect, Charles Adams Platt, to design the Ring Family Home. Though Platt had already achieved international recognition for his etchings and paintings, he had only recently obtained national prominence as an architect of landscapes and private homes. Long after its completion, in 1946-47 Elizabeth Ring Ireland Mather and her sister donated the Platt designed family home for the Museum. This home is the foundation and grandest piece of the Museum's permanent collection.

Saint Simon and Jude Church
Born on the feast of the Epiphany 1992, of a dream that came to be revealed to us as a bright light discovered when we came together in prayer and faith and discussion, we, the parish family of SS. Simon and Jude, have chosen to combine our gifts and energy to form a community that is itself a revelation of God. We commit ourselves to Christ Jesus, our Lord; to unity of mind and heart in his name; a warm spirit of welcome; a visionary and prophetic lifestyle that includes all, draws all to him, and is legendary for its outreach to the poor, the unchurched, and all in need. Of such a radiant dream were we born. So may our lived reality always be a light the darkness cannot overcome.
