Harbor Impact Ministries is a multi-faceted service provider. Guests may receive services from all of the food and product banks on monthly Impact Days. Guests may receive services from the Library and Resource Center at any time throughout the month. Emergency assistance is also provided daily through referral or special arrangements made with the Harbor Director or other Staff Members.
What is an Impact Day? It is the day you can visit every room in the Harbor and find many things you need. It only happens ONCE A MONTH ON THE LAST TUESDAY OF THE MONTH unless you see a special announcement that it has been moved to another day because of a holiday.

Peg's pets

Margaret Jeanne "PEG" Noecker loved life, her family and all animals, but especially those that needed extra attention. She rehabilitated animals with physical and emotional problems. Upon her untimely death, her family wanted to continue her animal advocacy. Nothing made more sense than the development of Peg's Pets, a program to keep beloved pets in the homes of struggling families.
Each month on listed Impact Days, food and accessories will be available to pet owners. In emergencies, resources are available on other days by calling (810) 982-5312. Your donations to Peg's Pets are tax deductible. Checks should be made out to Harbor Impact Ministries/Peg's Pets. |
